(R. Rodgers, L. Hart)

[Recorded May 11, 1966, Hollywood]



The most beautiful girl in the world picks my ties out

She eats my candy, she drinks my brandy

The most beautiful girl in the world

The most beautiful star in the world, 'tisn't Garbo

T'sn't Dietrich, but a sweet trick

Who can make me believe it's a beautiful world

Social ? Not a bit! Natural kind of wit

She'd shine anywhere, and she hasn't got platinum hair

The most beautiful house in the world has a mortgage

What do I care ? It's "Good-bye, care"

When my slippers are next to the ones that belong

To the one and only beautiful girl in the world



[lengthy instrumental break]



Social ? Not a bit! She's got a natural kind of wit.

And I tell ya, she'd shine anywhere, and she hasn't got platinum hair

The most beautiful house in the world, it has a mortgage

What do I care ? It's "Good-bye, care"

When my slippers are next to the ones that belong

To the one and only beautiful girl

The one and only beautiful girl

The one and only beautiful girl in the world
