I Can't Get Started

(album: It's All Over But The Swingin' - 1957)

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

Around the golf course, I'm under par
And William Goetz has asked me to star
I've got a house, such a showplace
But I can't get no place with you

You're so supreme
Lyrics I write of you
Scheme just for the sight of you
Dream both day and night of you
And what good does it do?

In 1929, I sold short
In England, I am presented at court
But you've got me so downhearted
'Cause I can't get started with you

You're so supreme
Lyrics I write of you
Scheme, go, go, go, just for the sight of you
Dream, yeah, both day and night of you
But what good does it do?

I don't like Jaguars 'cause they're too sleek
In Paris, I'm considered too chic
But you've got me downhearted
'Cause I can't get started with you
