You're the One - The Three Degrees

I’m the one, you’re the one

I’m the one, you’re the one

I’m the one, you’re the one

You’re the one, you’re the one

I’m the one who wants to be ahead

I stand in line and I’m behind instead

What is happenin let me look around

Not a thing trying to hold me down

Now I know I got to look at me

Some things a little hard to see

You’re the one

And your mama can’t make you good

You’re the one

Can’t blame no argument

You’re the one

Don’t you know how to take a hint

You’re the one

Your teacher can’t teach you dumb

You’re the one

But your pity can make you numb

You’re the one

I’m the one my life has taught to fight

To turn around would never make it right

Inside out or outside in

The way you do depends on where youve been

I think I’m making it, I think I’m near

Then I realize I’m in the rear
