When I was a young boy,
My mama she said to me,
"There's only one girl in the world for you,
And she probably lives in Tahiti."
"Or maybe she's in the Bahamas,
Where the Caribbean Sea is blue,
Weeping away in the tropical night
Because nobody's told her about 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.
Yeah!
Why am I hanging around in the rain out here
Trying to think of a girl?
Why are my eyes filling up with these lonely tears
When there's girls all over the world?
Or is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere
Underneath the tropical sun,
Hiding away in the heatwave there,
Hoping that I won't be long?
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.
Yeah!
I'd go the whole wide world,
I'd go the whole wide world,
I'd go the whole wide world, (I'd go the whole wide world)
I'd go the whole wide world, (I'd go the whole wide world)
I'd go the whole wide world, (I'd go the whole wide world)
