And when I told them how beautiful you are, They didn't believe me. They didn't believe me. Your lips, your eyes, your cheeks, your hair, Are in a class beyond compare, You're the lovliest girl that one could see! And when I tell them, and I cert'nly am goin' to tell them, That I'm the man whose wife one day you'll be. They'll never believe me. They'll never believe me. That from this great big world you've chosen me! And when I tell them, and I cert'nly am goin' to tell them, That I'm the man whose wife one day you'll be. They'll never believe me. They'll never believe me. That from this great big world you've chosen me!
