I'm a travelin' man I've made a lot of stops   all over the world

And in every part I own the heart of at least one lovely girl
         D               Bm            D                 Bm
I've a pretty Seniorita waiting for me   down in old Mexico

If you're ever in Alaska stop and see my cute little Eskimo


        G                    F#m         Em                           D 
Oh my sweet Fraulien down in Berlin town    makes my heart start to yearn
        G                 F#m           E                 A
And my China doll down in old Hong Kong   waits for my return
        D              Bm           D                 Bm
Pretty Polynesian baby over the sea   I remember the night
         D            D7/F#         G            D7/F#    A       D
When we walked in the sands of the Waikiki and I held you oh so tight
