Lyrics may not be 100% but there's not many credible sources for Tiny Tim's lyrics.
From his album "God Bless Tiny Tim"
play this with a glass/brass slide or you could pick it for now.
(7)
All I want is 50 million dollars
(7)
And seal silk to protect me from the cold.
If I only knew how stocks would go in Wall Street
And were living in the mansion built of gold.
If I only owned Pennsylvania Railroad
And if Tuesday Weld would only be my wife (Oh, Tiny!)
PRE CHORUS
If I could only stay sixteen forever
(7)
Then I'd know that I'd be satisfied with life.
All I want is wheatgerm for my breakfast
Champagne fountain sizzling at my feet
While Rockefeller waiten on the table
And Lombardo's band playin' while I eat.
If I only owned Western Union cable
And if Tuesday Weld would only be my wife (Tiny, I love you!)
PRE CHORUS
If I could only stay sixteen forever and ever and ever
Then I'd know that I'd be satisfied with life.
[spoken:]
Hello, my dear friend,
Don't run away from all this world,
It's a great big beautiful world
With fabulous happy faces around
Well, I can see this one over here, you lovely thing,
Why, it's beautiful, it's clean, and it's calm and it's modern,
If I can have them all, why, I'll tell you, I'll tell you
Then I'd know that I'd be satisfied with life.
