Bilingual
I've been around the world in a plane
Settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
But can't get started with you
And at the golf course I'm under par
Metro-Goldwyn wants me to star
I've got a house and a show place
But can't get no place with you
You're so supreme, the lyrics I write of you
Dream, dream, day and night of you
Scheme just for the sight of you
Baby, but what good does it do?
I've been consulted by Franklin D
Robert Taylor has had me to tea
But now I'm broken hearted
Can't get started with you
ย
When first we met
How you elated me, pet
You devastated me, yet
Now you've deflated me
'Til you're my Waterloo
When J.P. Morgan bows, I just nod
Green Pastures wanted me to play God
The Siamese twins I've parted
Can't get started with you
