Whole Wide World Songtext / Lyric

When I was a young boy

My mama said to me

There's only one girl in the world for you

But she probably lives in Tahiti



I'd go the whole wide world

I'd go the whole wide world just to find her



Or maybe she's in the Bahamas

Where the Carribean sea is blue

Weeping in a tropical moonlit night

Because nobody's told her 'bout you



I'd go the whole wide world

I'd go the whole wide world just to find her

I'd go the whole wide world

I'd go the whole wide world to find out where they hide her

I'd go the whole wide world

I'd go the whole wide world just to find her






Why am I hanging around in the rain out here

Trying to pick up a girl

Why are my eyes filling up with these lonely tears

When there's girls all over the world



Well is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere

Underneath the tropical sun

Pining away in a heatwave there

Hoping that I won't be long



I should be lying on that sun-soaked beach with her

Caressing her warm brown skin

And then in a year or maybe not quite

We'll be sharing the same next of kin



I'd go the whole wide world

I'd go the whole wide world just to find her

I'd go the whole wide world

I'd go the whole wide world to find out where they hide her

I'd go the whole wide world

I'd go the whole wide world just to find her

I'd go the whole wide world

I'd go the whole wide world to find out where they hide her

Hey!
