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
any time i move my finger.
lucky me! can´t you see 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 it 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

i´ve got the world on a string,
sitting on a rainobw.
got the string around my finger.
what a world! what a life!
what a world! what a life!
what a world! what a life!
i´m in love.
