[Refrain]
Bob Hope, Bob Hope
Bob Hope, Bob Hope

[Verse 1]
There is granite, there is marble and steel
There are planets, there's the sun and the wheel
But the wheel can't make you feel like...

[Refrain]
Bob Hope, Bob Hope

[Verse 2]
When you got 'em, you don't know what you got
When you lose 'em, you're not left with a lot
So it's time to, time to think about...

[Refrain]
Bob Hope, Bob Hope
Bob Hope, Bob Hope

[Chorus 1]
Lucy, Orson, and all the rest
The sun sets slowly in the West
Glad I'vе gotten that off my chest
[Refrain]
Bob Hope, Bob Hopе

[Verse 3]
'Tis a pity that we've nearly consumed
Every God, King, Queen, and President, too
Oh my God, Bob, what's it all come to?

[Refrain]
Bob Hope, Bob Hope
Bob Hope, Bob Hope

[Chorus 2]
Hope will last an eternity
It's been here before you and me
He's been here before you and me

[Refrain]
Bob Hope, Bob Hope
Bob Hope, Bob Hope

[Interlude]

[Verse 4]
There's the Ganges, the Tiber, and the Danube
And the Rockies, the Himalayas, too
But a mountain couldn't rise up to...
[Refrain]
Bob Hope, Bob Hope

[Chorus 3]
Hope's the biggest and Hope's the best
Hope's the thing that has stood the test
Glad I've gotten this off my chest

[Refrain]
Bob Hope, Bob Hope
Bob Hope, Bob Hope
Bob Hope, Bob Hope
Bob Hope, Bob Hope
