World on a String

I've got the world on a string
I'm sitting on a rainbow
Got that string around my finger
What a world, what a life - I'm in love
Abigail looks good in the hat and the hat looks good on her. She knit it with a madder dyed yarn on circular needles. World On A String might well be the knitter's song.
I've got a song that I sing
And I can make the rain go
Any time I move my finger
Lucky me, cant you see - I'm in love
Life's a wonderful thing
As long as I've got that string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If I should ever let you go
Music by Harold Arlen and lyrics by Ted Koehler, 1932. Frank Sinatra recorded the song in 1952. It reached number 14 on the Billboard chart.
I've got the world on a string
I'm sitting on the rainbow
I've got that string around my finger
Oh, What a world, what a life - I'm in love
