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

Got a string around my finger, what a world, what a life

I'm in love . .

I 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 a string

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

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

Got a string around my finger, what a life, what a world

I'm in love . .

( instrumental repeat of verse )

. . . what a world, what a life

I'm in love . .

( instrumental repeat of verse )

. . . lucky me, can't you see?

That I'm in love . .

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

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

Oh! I got the world on a string, sittin' on the rainbow

Got a string around my finger, what a world, what a life

I'm really in love . .
