Whole Wide World
Lyrics
When I was a young boy My mama said to me "There's only one girl in the world for you" And she's probably in Tahiti Or maybe she's in the Bahamas Where the Carribean sea is blue Weeping in a tropical moonlit night 'Cause nobody 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 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 these girls are all over the world 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 When I was a young boy My mama said to me "There's only one girl in the world for you" And she's probably in Tahiti Or maybe she's in the Bahamas Where the Carribean sea is blue Weeping in a tropical moonlit night 'Cause nobody 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 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 these girls are all over the world 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 When I was a young boy My mama said to me "There's only one girl in the world for you" And she's probably in Tahiti Or maybe she's in the Bahamas Where the Carribean sea is blue Weeping in a tropical moonlit night 'Cause nobody 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 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 these girls are all over the world 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
