Then I'd Be Satisfied with My Life

Lyrics for Then I'd Be Satisfied with My Life

Never hit your grandma with a shovel, It makes a bad impression on her mind All I want is fifty million dollars, And seal skins to protect me from the cold. If I only knew how stocks would go in Wall Street, And were living in a Mansion built of gold. If I only owned Pennsylvania Railroad, And if Tuesday Weld would only be my wife (Oh, Tiny!) If I could only stay sixteen forever, Then I'd know that I'd be satisfied with life. All I want is wheatgerm for my breakfast, A Champagne fountain sizzling at my feet. While Rockefeller waited on the table, And Lombardo's band playin' while I eat. If I only owned Western Union cable, And if Tuesday Weld would only be my wife (Tiny, I love you!) If I could only stay sixteen forever and ever and ever, Then I'd know that I'd be satisfied with life. (Spoken) You know my dear friend, Don't run away from this world, It's a great big beautiful world, With all these happy faces around. Well, I can see this one over here, you lovely thing, Why, it's beautiful, it's clear, and it's calm and it's modern, If I can have them all, why, I'll tell you, I'll tell you... Then I'd know that I'd be satisfied with life
