I've got the world on a string

Sitting on a rainbow

Got that 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 snap my finger

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



Life's a beautiful thing

Long as I hold that string

I'd be a silly so-and-so

If I'd ever let you go



But I've got this world on a string

I'm sittin' on a rainbow

Got that string around my finger

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



Life's a beautiful thing

Long as I hold that string

I'd be a silly so-and-so

If I'd ever let you go



But, darling, I've got the world on a string

Sitting on a rainbow

Got that string around my finger

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