I've Got the World on a String

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!
