Luckiest Man In The World - Michael Feinstein

As soon as I have saved a little nest egg

I hope to ask you, dear, will you be mine?

The lovers you have had say, you’re the best egg

They repeat, you’re completely divine

I’ve heard of Pompadour and Cleopatra

But you are better than the two combined

How can it be you fancy me, is it that love is blind?

I’m about the luckiest man in the world

To have a girl like you, I’m told by Fritz and Peter

Your lips would not be sweeter

Oh, you must be a marvelous thing to delight

The many men you do, the secrets they can find

Have made me swell with pride

We shall move to larger quarters

To make your boyfriends feel at home

Your iceman and your cops and porters

Would fill the hippodrome

Oh, I’m about the luckiest man in the world

To have a girl like you

I’m very lucky to have a little girl like you

I’m about the luckiest man in the world

To have a girl like you

I’m proud because I can’t see

Yet struck the nations fancy

Oh, you must have a marvelous gift to receive

The many gifts you do with same old clothes

And things each time the doorbell rings

I have heard from Jack, the plumber

A gentleman you may recall

When you were through with him last summer

He couldn’t plumb at all

Oh, I’m about the luckiest man in the world

To have a girl like you, a little girl like you
