The most beautiful girl in the
world picks my ties out
She eats my candy, she drinks my
brandy
The most beautiful girl in the
world
The most beautiful star in the
world, 'tisn't Garbo
T'sn't Dietrich, but a sweet
trick
Who can make me believe it's a
beautiful world
Social ? Not a bit! Natural kind of wit
She'd shine anywhere, and she
hasn't got platinum hair
The most beautiful house in the
world has a mortgage
What do I care ? It's "Good-bye, care"
When my slippers are next to the
ones that belong
To the one and only beautiful
girl in the world
<lengthy instrumental

Social ? Not a bit! She's got a natural kind of wit.
And I tell ya, she'd shine
anywhere, and she hasn't got platinum hair
The most beautiful house in the
world, it has a mortgage
What do I care ? It's "Good-bye, care"
When my slippers are next to the
ones that belong
To the one and only beautiful
girl
The one and only beautiful girl
The one and only beautiful girl
in the world
