I've flown around the world in a plane
I've settled REVOLUTIONS in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
Still I can't get started with you

On the golf course, I'm under par
And Metro GOLDWYN'S asked me to star
I've got a house, a show place
Still I can't get no place with you

Cause you're so supreme
Lyrics I write of you
I dream, dream night and day of you
And I steam just for the sight of you
Baby what good does it do

I've been CONSULTED by Franklin D
And Greta Garbo gave me her key
Still I'm broken hearted
Cause I can't get started with you

In 1929 I sold short
In England I'm presented at court
But you've got me down hearted
Cause I can't get started with you
