Lyrics
- The world is right, my heart is light
I’m like a baby
There is no “maybe”, I know my fate
I never knew what love could do
My heart is reeling
The way I’m feeling is simply great
Chorus:
Fit as a fiddle and ready for love
I could jump over the moon up above
Fit as a fiddle and ready for love
Haven’t a worry, I haven’t a care
Feel like a feather that’s floating on air
Fit as a fiddle and ready for love
Soon the church bells will be ringing
And I’ll march with Ma and Pa
How those church bells will be ringing
With a Hey, nonny, nonny and a hot-cha-cha
Hi diddle diddle, my baby’s Okay
Ask me a riddle, oh what did she say?
Fit as a fiddle and ready for love
- This is the day, my lucky day
I’m so excited
I’m so delighted with everything
You’re in my heart, never to part
I am so happy
I feel so happy I want to sing
