'S WONDERFUL
George Gershwin (m) Ira Gershwin (l)  1927

as rec by Ella Fitzgerald w Nelson Riddle & his Orch  
July 16th 1959 Los Angeles


Don't mind telling you,
In my humble fash,
That you thrill me through
With a tender pash.
Imagine my emoshe;
I swore, then and there,
Permanent devoshe.
You made all other men seem blah;
just you alone filled me with "Aah!".

'S wonderful! 
'S marvellous -
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 magnifique,
'S what I seek,
You should care for me!
'S elegant,
'S what I want,
'S what I love to see!

My dear, it's four leaf clover time,
>From now on my heart's working overtime!
'S exceptional,
'S no bagatelle,
That you should care for,
That you should care for,
That you should care for me!
