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
Any time I move my finger
Lucky me, can't you see, I'm in love

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

Yes, I've got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a world, life is fine, my baby loves me
He's mine all mine, what a world, said, I'm in love
