As recorded by THE BOSWELL SISTERS:

Lucky little devil
The whole world is wild about you
That's why I'm so blue
Lucky little devil

Lucky little devil
They all want some loving from you
Like I surely do
Lucky little devil

I worry more and more
Over your popularity
How can I picture you
Getting sweet on me

Lucky little devil
Your love dreams are bound to come true
I wish mine would too
Lucky little devil

You're a bundle of sweetness
Causes nothing but sighs
I want all of your sweetness
Still you wanta make eyes

Others gather about you
All affection they show
Why can't they do without you
Then I'll love you so

(You know someone painted a picture)
(On a beautiful, romantic night)
(And love came into that picture)
(Filling the eyes with delight)
(Who could help, but adore it)
(Why, you're the picture I mean)
(For since the day I first saw it)
(I've been in a dream)

Lucky little devil
The whole world is wild about you
That's why I'm so blue
Lucky little devil

Lucky little devil
They all want some loving from you
Like I surely do
Lucky little devil

I worry more and more
Over your popularity
How can I picture you
Getting sweet on me

Lucky little devil
Your love dreams are bound to come true
I wish mine would too
Lucky little devil
