Lyrics John Lennon

John Lennon

I'm the Greatest

When I was a little boy

Way back home in Liverpool

My mama told me I was great

And then when I was a teenager

I knew that I got something going

My baby told me I was great

Now I'm a man

A woman took me by the hand

And she told me I was great

I was in the greatest show on earth

For what it was worth

And now I'm thirty-two

And all I wanna do is boogaloo, hey

Yeah, I look myself in the mirror

I see my wife and kids

And they tell me,"You're great"

And let me introduce to you

The one and only Billy Shears

Ah, she's thirty-two

And all she wants to do is boogaloo, hey

Hey, hey, hey

Hear them say

My mama told me I was great
