I’ve Got the World on a String Louis Armstrong and His Orchestra

One, two

[Verse 1]
I've got the world on a string
Sittin' on a rainbow
Got the string on my finger
What a world, what a life, I'm in love, oh

[Verse 2]
I've got a song that I sing
I can make the rainbow
Any time I move my finger
Lucky me, can't you see? I'm in love

[Bridge]
Life is 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

[Verse 3]
I've got the world on a string
Sittin' on a rainbow
Got the string on my finger
(Scat) oh, mama (scat)
