Luckiest Man In The World Lyrics - Nice Work If You Can Get It - Michael Feinstein

As soon as I have saved a little nest egg 

I hope to ask you, dear, will you be mine? 

The lovers you have had say you're the best egg 

They repeat, you're completely divine 

I've heard of Pompadour and Cleopatra 

But you are better than the two combined 

How can it be you fancy me, is it that love is blind? 

I'm about the luckiest man in the world 

To have a girl like you, I'm told by Fritz and Peter 

Your lips would not be sweeter 

Oh, you must be a marvelous thing to delight 

The many men you do, the secrets they can find 

Have made me swell with pride 

We shall move to larger quarters 

To make your boyfriends feel at home 

Your iceman and your cops and porters 

Would fill the hippodrome 

Oh, I'm about the luckiest man in the world 

To have a girl like you 

I'm very lucky to have a little girl like you 

I'm about the luckiest man in the world 

To have a girl like you 

I'm proud because I can't see 

Yet struck the nations fancy 

Oh, you must have a marvelous gift to receive 

The many gifts you do with same old clothes 

And things each time the doorbell rings 

I have heard from Jack, the plumber 

A gentleman you may recall 

When you were through with him last summer 

He couldn't plumb at all 

Oh, I'm about the luckiest man in the world 

To have a girl like you, a little girl like you
