Carmen McRae — I Can't Get Started With You lyrics

Lyrics

I’ve flown around the world in a plane
I’ve settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
But can’t get started with you
Down on the golf course I’m under par
And all the movies want me to star
I’ve got a house a show place
Still I get no place with you
You’re so supreme
The lyrics I write of you
Scheme just for the sight of you
Dream both day and night of you
Till what good dose it do
I’ve been consulted by Franklin D.
And Frank Sinatra had me to tea
Still I’m broken hearted
Cause I can’t get started with you
When first we met how you elated me Pet, you devastated me Yet, now you’ve deflated me
'Till, you’re my Waterloo
When J.P. Morgan bows I just nod
Green Pastures wanted me to play God
The Siamese Twins I’ve parted
But I can’t get started with you
