Still Harold Arlen
Here's another one of his songs that he wrote
For the president of all the popular singers in the world
Ladies and gentlemen, Frank Sinatra
Merry month of May, sunny skies of blue
Clouds have rolled away and the sun peeps through
May express happiness
Joys 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
I'm sittin' on a rainbow
I 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 anytime I move my finger
Lucky me, can't you see that I'm in love?
Life is a beautiful thing
As long as you hold that string
Now, wouldn't you be a silly so-and-so
If you should ever let go?
I've got the world on a string
I'm sittin' on a rainbow
I got the string around my finger
What a world, what a life, I'm in love
