Hitting the High Spots Songtext
von George Formby

Can′t help grinnin'
I′ve been winnin'
Had a real good do
And now I'm tellin′ you
Grey skies are turnin′ blue!
What a racket!
What a packet
I have won today!
Trouble's over
I′m in clover
Everything's okay!


I feel like a millionaire
I′m all de luxe and how!
I'm in the money
Tasting the honey
Hitting the high spots now!
All my frowns have turned to smiles
No wrinkles on my brow
I′m steppin' out more
Gettin' about more
Hitting the high spots now!

Life is what you make it
So make it worthwhile
Whatever comes just take it
You gotta sing along and get in rhythm!
I′m on top of all the world
I′m makin' good and how!
Turning the switch on
Puttin′ the ritz on
Hitting the high spots now!

I'll be livin′ like a lord
The Lord knows who or how!
I'm in the right school
Going to night school
Hitting the high spots now!
Horses winnin′, wine and song
And greyhounds too, bow-wow!
When there's a cert on
Putting me shirt on
Hitting the high spots now!


Well, life is what you make it
So just make it worthwhile
Whatever comes just take it
You gotta to sing along and get in rhythm!
In the best society
I soon will make my bow
Dressed up tricky with a clean shirt on
Hitting the high spots
I'll be a big shot
Hitting the high spots now!
