The Winner - Natalie Cole

In this world of make believe I must confess

To be number one you’ve got to do it better

And if you strive to be happy you’ll find success

Perspectively you’ve got to pull it together

Nothing good will come to you if you don’t see

A reason for victory

Everybody loves the winner

Only the winner can really make things happen

Everybody loves the winner, so be the winner, I know you are

If there’s something you’d like to do you’ve never done

Don’t let fear stand in your way

Just collect your dreams and thoughts and get on the run

I wouldn’t wait another day

You can be the best in everything you do

When it thawls out, it’s all up to you

Everybody loves the winner (everybody loves the winner)

Only a winner can really make things happen

Everybody loves a winner (everybody loves a winner)

So be the winner you are

Be a winner, ooh (yes you can, yes you can, yes you can)

Be a winner, ooh (yes you can, yes you can, yes you can)

Be a winner, a winner, a winner, yes you can

'cause everybody (everybody) loves (loves a winner)

The winner, so be a winner

You can only make things happen

Everybody (everybody) loves a winner (loves a winner)

So be the winner, I know you are

Every (everybody), everybody, (loves a winner)

Really loves the winner, (so be a winner)

Only the winner can really make things happen

Everybody (everybody) loves the winner (loves a winner)

So be a winner (so be a winner), I know you are if you really try

Be a winner, you know you can, you know you can

You know you can be a winner

(yes you can, yes you can, yes you can)

Scat (yes you can, yes you can, yes you can)

Scat

(everybody) yeah, (loves a winner)

Scat

(everybody loves a winner)

(everybody) everybody really loves a winner (loves a winner)!
