Strum
D-DU-UDU
   bum, bum, bum, bum...oouuuuuuu  (Lots of this through out)
 I'm  a travelin'  man, made a lot of stops,  all over the  world
 And  in every port, I own  the heart of at least  one lovely  girl.
 I  have a pretty senorita,  waiting for  me, down in old  Mexico.
 If  you 're ever in  Alaska stop and  see my cute  little  Eskimo.
 Oh  my sweet frauline, down  in Berlin town  makes my heart start to  yearn.
 And  my China doll down  in old Hong Kong  waits for my  return.
 Pretty  Polynesian baby,  over the sea,  I remember the  night
 when  we walked in the sands  of Wai Ki Ki  and I held  her oh so  tight.
 Oh  my sweet fraline, down  in Berlin town,  makes my heart start to  yearn.
 And  my China doll down  in old Hong Kong  waits for my  return.
 Whoa..,  I'm a travelin'  man. Yes,  I'm a travelin'  man.
 Whoa..,  I'm a travelin'  man. Yes,  I'm a travelin'  man.
