Lyrics I’ve Got the World On a String - Sarah Vaughan

Merry month of May, sunny skies of blue
Clouds have rolled away and the sun peeps through
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, sitting 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, sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a world, what a life
I'm in love

Life is a beautiful thing
As long as I hold that string
I'd be a silly so and so
If I should ever let go

I've got the world on a string, sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a world, what a life
What a world, what a life, I'm in love
