I've Got the World on a String

Frank Sinatra

Merry month of May, sunny skies of blue,
clouds have rolled away and the sun peeps through
may express happiness.
Joy 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.
