Duke Ellington — The Wonder of You lyrics

Lyrics

I’ve steered an ocean liner,
Played golf in Indo China,
I’ve flown a Stratoliner through the blue;
I’ve seen the clouds go under,
But nothin' like the wonder of you!
Ive hoola-ed in Hawaii,
Put out a forest fire,
I read each new Esquire through and through!
I’ve seen a pirate’s plunder,
But nothing like the wonder of you!
I’ve seen
The coronation of a queen;
I’ve seen
Micket Mouse up on the screen.
I’ve whistled Otchi-Tchorniya,
Spent June in California,
But when I’m in your arms I find it true;
The world and all its wonders
Has nothing like the wonder of you!
