I've Got the World on a String lyrics

Merry month of may, sunny skies of blue,

Clouds have rolled away and the sun peeps thru,

May express happiness, joy you may define in a thousand ways,

But a case like mine needs a "special phrase"

To reveal how I feel.

I've got the world on a string, sittin' on a rainbow,

Got the string around my finger,,

What a world, what a life, I'm in love!

I've got a song that I sing,

I can make the rain go, anytime I move my finger,

Lucky me, can't you see, I'm in love,

Life is a beautiful thing, as long as I hold the string,

I'd be a silly so and so, if I should ever let go,

I've got the world on a string, sittin' on a rainbow,

Got the string around my finger,

What a world, what a life, I'm in love.

I've got the world on a string, sittin' on a rainbow,

Got the string around my finger,,

What a world, what a life, I'm in love!

I've got a song that I sing,

I can make the rain go, anytime I move my finger,

Lucky me, can't you see, I'm in love,

Life is a beautiful thing, as long as I hold the string,

I'd be a silly so and so, if I should ever let go,

I've got the world on a string, sittin' on a rainbow,

Got the string around my finger,

What a world, what a life, I'm in love.
