Whole Wide World

When I was a young boy
My mama said to me
"There's only one girl in the world for you
She probably lives in Tahiti"

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

Maybe she's in the Bahamas
Where the Caribbean Sea is blue
Weeping in a tropical, moonlit night
Because nobody's talking '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 hangin' around in the rain out here
Tryin' to pick up a girl?
Why are my eyes fillin' up with these lonely tears
When there's girls all over the world?
Is she lyin' on a tropical beach somewhere
Underneath a tropical sun?
Biding away in a heat-wave there
Hoping that I won't be long
I should be lyin' on that sun-lit 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

Yeah
