‘S wonderful! ‘S marvelous!
You should care for me!
‘S awful nice! ‘S paradise!
‘S what I love to see!
You’ve made my life so glamorous
You can’t blame me for feeling amorous
Oh! ‘S wonderful! ‘S marvelous!
That you should care for me!
‘S wonderful! ‘S marvelous!
That you should care for me!
‘S awful nice! ‘S paradise!
‘S what I love to see!
My dear, it’s four-leaf clover time
From now on my heart’s working overtime
Oh! ‘S wonderful! ‘S marvelous!
That you should care for me!
