"I've Got The World On A String" lyrics

"I've Got The World On A String"
(originally by Cab Calloway)

I've got the world on a string
I'm sitting on a rainbow
Got the 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
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 her go

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

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

I've got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a world
Man this is the life
And I'm
I'm so in love
