When I was a young boy | When I was a young boy<br> | ||
My mama said to me<br> | |||
There's only one girl in the world for you<br> | |||
And she probably lives in Tahiti<br> | |||
<br> | |||
I'd go the whole wide world<br> | |||
I'd go the whole wide world<br> | |||
Just to find her<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Or maybe she's in the Bahamas<br> | |||
Where the Carribean sea is blue<br> | |||
Weeping in a tropical moonlit night<br> | |||
Because nobody's told her 'bout you<br> | |||
<br> | |||
I'd go the whole wide world<br> | |||
I'd go the whole wide world<br> | |||
Just to find her<br> | |||
I'd go the whole wide world<br> | |||
I'd go the whole wide world<br> | |||
Find out where they hide her<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Why am I hanging around in the rain out here<br> | |||
Trying to pick up a girl<br> | |||
Why are my eyes filling up with these lonely tears<br> | |||
When there're girls all over the world<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere<br> | |||
Underneath the tropical sun<br> | |||
Pining away in a heatwave there<br> | |||
Hoping that I won't be long<br> | |||
<br> | |||
I should be lying on that sun-soaked beach with her<br> | |||
Caressing her warm brown skin<br> | |||
And then in a year or maybe not quite<br> | |||
We'll be sharing the same next of kin<br> | |||
<br> | |||
I'd go the whole wide world<br> | |||
I'd go the whole wide world<br> | |||
Just to find her<br> | |||
I'd go the whole wide world<br> | |||
I'd go the whole wide world<br> | |||
Find out where they hide her<br> | |||
