Lyrics

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 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
