Looking Out for Number One Songtext
von Travis Tritt

No matter what I do, I can′t make you happy
Though I go to great lengths to do your will
If you say hurry, girl, I make it snappy
Trying hard to keep your wishes filled

But I'm getting tired and feeling real discouraged
From being pressure underneath your thumb
So here′s a message you can give your mama
Starting now, I'm looking out for number one

Lord, everyone around me, I've tried so hard to please
Till the only one unhappy, feeling broken down is me
But things are gonna change with each new setting sun
Starting now, I′m looking out for number one
Get along woh
Ho yeah


It′s getting hard to face my mornin' mirror
There′s a stranger in there, staring back at me
He tells me every day it's getting clearer
Son, you′re not the man, you used to be

Yea it's time to get this monkey off my shoulder
And quit worrying about the things that you want done
I′m gonna start the fire that you have smoldered
'Cause starting now, I'm looking out for number one

Lord everyone around me, I′ve tried so hard to please
Till the only one unhappy, feeling broken down is me
But things are gonna change with each new setting sun
Starting now, I′m looking out for number one
Yea starting now, I'm looking out for number one

Yea number one, oh number one, ho ho ho hey yea
Am looking out for
Looking out for number one
Ooh looking out for me
Number one, number one, number one
