Whole Wide World Songtext
von Billie Joe Armstrong

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 lives in Bahamas
Where the Caribbean Sea is blue
Weeping in the 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 hanging around in the rain right 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 the tropical beach somewhere
Under a tropical sun?
Pining away in a heatwave there
Hoping that I won′t be long

I should be lying on that sunlit 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 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!
