Lyrics I Can't Get Started - Django Reinhardt, Stéphane Grappelli

I Can't Get Started

I’m a glum one
It’s explainable
I’ve met someone
Unattainable
Life’s a bore
The world is my Oyster no more
All the papers
Where I lead the news
With my capers
Now will spread the news
Superman turned out to be
A flash-in-the-pan
I’ve flown around the world in a plane
I’ve settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
But I can’t get started with you
Around the golf course I’m under par
And all the movies want me to star
I’ve built a house and show place
But I can’t get no place with you
You’re so supreme
Lyrics that I write of you
Scheme, just for a sight of you
And I dream both day and night of you
And what good does it do In 1929, I sold short
In London, I’m presented at court
But you’ve got me down hearted,
Cause I can’t get started with you
You’re so supreme
Lyrics that I write of you
Scheme, just for a sight of you
And I dream both day and night of you
And what good does it do In 1929, I sold short
In London, I’m presented at court
But you’ve got me down hearted,
Cause I can’t get started with you, with you
