I'm The Greatest Lyrics

When I was a little boy
Way back home in Liverpool,
My mama told me . . . I was great

Then when I was a teenager,
I knew that I had got something going,
All my friends told me . . . I was great

And now I'm a man
A woman took me by the hand
And you know what she told me . . . I was great

I was in the greatest show on earth,
For what it was worth,
Now I'm only thirty-two,
And all I wanna do, is boogaloo.

I looked in the mirror,
I saw my wife and kids,
And you know what they told me . . . I was great.

Yes, my name is Billy Shears,
You know it has been for so many years,
Now I'm only thirty-two;
And all I wanna do, is boogaloo.

I'm the greatest, and you better believe it baby.
