Die Toten Hosen 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 probably lives in Tahiti

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

Or maybe she's in the Bahamas
Where the Caribbean sea is blue
Weeping in the tropical moonlit night
Because nobody's told about you

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

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


Is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere?
Underneath a tropical sun
Pining away in a heat wave there
Hoping that I won't be long

I should be lying on that sun swept 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
Go the whole wide world just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world to find out where they hide her

I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world to find out where they hide her, yeah

Whole wide world
Whole wide world
