I Can't Get Started (Live)

I Can't Get Started (Live) - V. Duke/Ira Gershwin/Count Basie and His Orchestra/Billie Holiday

I've been around the world in a plane

Settled revolutions in Spain

The North Pole I have charted

But can't get started with you

And at the golf course I'm under par

Metro-Goldwyn wants me to star

I've got a house and a show place

But can't get no place with you

You're so supreme

The lyrics I write of you

Scheme just for the sight of you

Dream day and night of you

Baby but what good does it do

I've been consulted by Franklin D

Even Gable had me to tea

But now I'm broken hearted

Can't get started with you

You're so supreme

The lyrics I write of you

Dream dream day and night of you

Scheme just for the sight of you

But what good does it do

I've been consulted by Franklin D

Even Basie had me to tea

But now I'm broken hearted

Can't get started with you
