I've Got You Under My Skin

Frank Sinatra · Sinatra: Best Of The Best [2011]

(Cole Porter)



*I have heard multiple versions of this song by Frank.

I have included three versions. This should cover it for the most part.

The biggest differences should be things spoken by him & and's/but's/that's/I've.



I've got you under my skin

I've got you deep in the heart of me

So deep in my heart, that you're really a part of me

I've got you under my skin



I tried so not to give in

I said to myself this affair never will go so well

But why should I try to resist, when baby I know so well

I've got you under my skin



I 'd sacrifice anything come what might

For the sake of having you near

In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night

And repeats, repeats in my ear



Don't you know little fool, you never can win

Use your mentality, wake up to reality

But each time that I do, just the thought of you

Makes me stop before I begin

'Cause I've got you under my skin



I would sacrifice anything come what might

For the sake of having you near

In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night

And repeats, how it yells in my ear



Don't you know little fool, you never can win

Why not use your mentality, step up, wake up to reality

But each time I do, just the thought of you

Makes me stop just before I begin

'Cause I've got you under my skin

Yes, I've got you under my skin



--Alternate Version---



I've got you under my skin

I've got you deep in the heart of me

So deep in my heart, that you're really a part of me

I've got you under my skin



I tried so not to give in

I said to myself this affair it never will go so well

But why should I try to resist, when baby I know damn well

That I've got you under my skin



I'd sacrifice anything come what might

For the sake of having you near

In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night

And repeats, repeats in my ear



Don't you know you fool, you never can win

Use your mentality, wake up to reality

But each time I do, just the thought of you

Makes me stop before I begin

'Cause I've got you under my skin



I would sacrifice anything come what might

For the sake of having you near

In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night

And repeats, how it yells in my ear



Don't you know you fool, ain't no chance to win

Why not use your mentality, get up, wake up to reality

And each time I do, just the thought of you

Makes me stop just before I begin

Because I've got you under my skin

And I like you under my skin



---LIVE Version---

I have got you under my skin

I have got you deep in the heart of me

So deep in my heart, that you are a part of me

I have got you under my skin



I have tried so, I tried not to give in

I have said to myself this affair it ain't going to move so well

But why should I try to resist, when baby I know damn well

That I've got you under my skin



Sacrifice anything come what might

For the sake of having you near

In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night

And repeats, it repeat, it repeats



Don't you know you fool, you are never going to win

Use your mentality, wake up to reality

And each time I do, just the thought of you

Makes me stop before I begin

'Cause I've got you under my skin



I would sacrifice anything come what might

For the sake of having you near

In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night

And repeats, how it yells in my ear



Don't you know you fool, you ain't got no way to win

Why not use your mentality, wake up, step up to reality

And each time I do, just the thought of you

Makes me stop just before I begin

'Cause I've got you under my skin

Where does it hurt you baby?

Under my skin



I would sacrifice anything come what might

For the sake of having you near

In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night

And repeats, how it yells in my ear



Don't you know you fool, you got no way to win

Why not use your mentality, wake up, stand up to reality

And each time I do, just the thought of you

Makes me stop just before I begin

'Cause I've got you under my skin

And I dig you under my skin
