#1 Lyrics


All I ever wanted
Was to be excited
About right now-
We all wanna be number one.
All I ever wanted
Was to be excited
About right now-
We all wanna be number one.
We all wanna be number one.
When I said goodbye she had a tear in her eye
I'm like mamma don't cry your little boy gotta fly
They say up in N.Y.
That's where it's goin' down
And I'ma have a million dollars
When I get back in town
She said, "You're just goin' through a phase

Can't this be a hobby?"
I said, "My friends say I'm dope, even Charlie and Robbie."
We said our goodbyes and I boarded the plane
I was lookin' out the window at the wings
As it rained.
We taxied to the runway
I could hear the engines howlin'
Threw a prayer up in the air
Felt the wheels leave the ground
The buildings and the cars and the towns
Were small as ants
I was destined for the unknown
Just lookin' for a chance.
All I ever wanted
Was to be excited
About right now-
We all wanna be number one.
All I ever wanted
Was to be excited
About right now-
We all wanna be number one.
We all wanna be number one.
Landed at LaGuardia
I grabbed my bags and stepped
Into the cold, the snow was falling
I lit a cigarette
There was a million yellow taxis
Everybody seemed upset
A rugged voice from behind me
Asked me, "Where you tryin' to get?"
I said, "The closest motel,
But no tellin tomorrow."
Said, "You must be from Atlanta"
I said, "Georgia, how did you know?"
"I could tell by your accent
That you were from the South."
Threw my luggage in the truck and said,
"Get in," and we pulled out
Into the sirens and the honkin' horns
The hustle and the bustle
And the traffic and that's when he said,
"Welcome to the jungle."
I looked up at all the buildings until we got to the Mo-
Before I left he said," Hope you find
What you're lookin' for."
All I ever wanted
Was to be excited
About right now-
We all wanna be number one.
All I ever wanted
Was to be excited
About right now-
We all wanna be number one.
We all wanna be number one.
Then a 19 yr old kid
In a motel room in New York
Dug his cellie out his pocket
Called his parents to report
He was alive and doin well and doin fine
When he got off the phone
He sat down on the corner of the bed
All alone
With the TV on the volume muted
Grabbed his pen and pad
And jotted down ideas about some things
That he wanted so bad
That he would risk it all to get 'em
And it wasn't very long
He was asleep and right beside him
lay the lyrics to a song called
All I ever wanted
Was to be excited
About right now-
We all wanna be number one.
All I ever wanted
Was to be excited
About right now-
We all wanna be number one.
We all wanna be number one.
All I ever wanted
Was to be excited
About right now-
We all wanna be number one.
All I ever wanted
Was to be excited
About right now-
We all wanna be number one.
We all wanna be number one.

Rehab is an American rock/rap group was formed during the late 1990s in Warner Robins, Georgia. Rehab has released two major albums and four other discs are in existence. In addition, they have charted two singles on the Hot Modern Rock Tracks charts, one of which — "Bartender Song" — has also become a minor Hot 100 and country hit. This song is also their higher entry on the Rock charts.

Rehab was originally formed as a trio: Steaknife, Danny Alexander, and Brooks Buford. Early on, they released their first album "To Whom It May Consume" produced by Steaknife and Brooks Buford. Soon after, Epic/Sony offered a record deal.

Rehab's major label debut, Southern Discomfort, hit stores in October 2000. With band members Danny Alexander and Brooks, hailing from the city of Warner Robins, south of Macon, Georgia (they dedicated a song to their hometown called "This Town"). Their debut album starts with a skit of them breaking out of a rehabilitation facility. The album went on to sell over 140,000 units, and produced such hits as "Sittin' At A Bar", "It Don't Matter" (Modern Rock Top 20), "Rattle My Cage", and featured such guests as Cee-Lo, Goodie Mob, Steaknife, and Cody Chestnutt.

After 2 years on the road supporting the Vans Warped Tour and playing with bands such as Linkin Park, Danny called it quits over a difference in creative view points.

On July 12, 2005, Rehab re-emerged with a new album "Graffiti the World". The new Rehab was brought together by original band member Danny "Boone" Alexander. Joining him were longtime musicians Mike Hartnett on lead guitar, Hano Leathers on bass, Chris Hood on drums, Foz on rhythm guitar, and DJ Chris Crisis. An additional and unofficial member of the group, though, by the name of Demun Jones often steps in to perform the raps that Brooks once sang. The seven put together new tracks and re-worked old classics with help from local Atlanta producer Billy Hume.

Graffiti the World features the hits "What Do you Want From Me", "Graffiti The World","Last Tattoo" and "This Town" Danny Boone(a virtual musical tour of the groups hometown beginning in the 80's).

In 2008 Rehab decided to undergo a mini-tour focused in the southeast making stops in Georgia, Alabama, Carolina, Tennessee and Florida.

Brooks Buford, after the group's initial separation, went on to record several projects, Straight Outta Rehab, which was never released due to Artista going out of business. He is currently working on a follow-up album titled "Suspicious Package" as well as a side project with Ashley Alan-Lee and Tommy Henriksen called The Audio Club. In late 2005, Brooks went on to host the MTV series Trailer Fabulous and in 2006 the MTV International series "Bustamove".

Steaknife (Denny Campbell) was scheduled to release a CD under Priority Records but was later dropped from the label. Denny has stated that he wasn't very fond of these tracks. He has released an album with friend Lindsay Few titled "Trouble The Water" which is highly religion based. Denny is currently in the studio recording his first full length studio album tentatively titled "White Noize".

The "WhiteNoize" album produced by Steaknife (Denny Campbell and Soulful-I (Jared Adair)) has been released on their myspace page under the user name of "snowblindwhitenoize". Steaknife is currently working with Danny "Boone" Alexander and Brooks Buford, the original members of Rehab on a new album scheduled to come out sometime in April, as is Soulfuli on his own solo album called "Head high"

Universal Republic Records signed the Warner Robins mash-up group in May 2008 and will be releasing the band's 2005 independent release, Graffiti The World, later in the spring with 3 additional never-before-heard tracks.

A short west coast September tour with Pop Rock and Country crossover artist Kid Rock, and a new video release of their newly titled "Bartender song" formerly known as "Sittin at a bar" which was recorded with Country Superstar Hank Williams Jr.

Their newly released video can be found posted and played on CMT's Top 20 Countdown show staring Lance Smith and can also be found on MTV's website along with the brief overview and history of the band.
