 2x
 I'm a travelin'  man;
 I've made  a lot of stops, all  over the world
 And in every  port I own  the heart,
 of at least  one lovely girl
 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
 Oh, my sweet  Fraulien 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 the Waikiki,
 and I  held you oh  so tight
 Oh my sweet  Fraulien 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 the Waikiki,
 and I  held you oh  so tight
Oh,  I'm a travelin'  man
Yes,  I'm a travelin'  man 3x
