BEAUTIFUL WORLD - Allegra Broughton & Sam Page ©2017
It’s a beautiful world Yeah, it’s a beautiful world
It’s a beautiful world Yeah, it’s a beautiful world
Keep digging’ for diamonds and diving for pearls
It’s a beautiful, beautiful world
Why’d you go and say something like that
Makes “hello” feel like a knife in the back
Words can do so many things
Why not just try listening?
‘Cause it’s a beautiful world Yeah, it’s a beautiful world
It’s a beautiful world Yeah, it’s a beautiful world
Take it from Satchmo, wontcha take it from Merle
It’s a beautiful, beautiful world
How could you do such a thing
Throw away your home and your wedding ring
Break your own heart with all that pain
Chasin’ rainbows in the rain
‘Cause it’s a beautiful world Yeah, it’s a beautiful world
It’s a beautiful world Yeah, it’s a beautiful world
Girl teases boy, oh and boy chases girl
It’s a beautiful, beautiful world
Life is short, that;s no lie
First you get corn and then you get rye
But there’s a while lot of living inbetween
I’d rather have some fun than get old and mean
It’s a beautiful world Yeah, it’s a beautiful world
It’s a beautiful world Yeah, it’s a beautiful world
Take it from Satchmo, wontcha take it from Merle
It’s a beautiful, beautiful world
‘Cause it’s a beautiful world Yeah, it’s a beautiful world
It’s a beautiful world Yeah, it’s a beautiful world
Girl teases boy, oh and boy chases girl
It’s a beautiful, beautiful world Yes, it’s a beautiful beautiful world
It’s a beautiful, beautiful world
