Its very nice to go travling
To paris london and rome
Its oh so nice to go travling
But its so much nicer, yes its so much nicer, to come home
Its very nice to just wander
The camel route to iraq
Its oh so nice to just wander
But its so much nicer, yes its oh so nice, to wander back
The mamselles and frauleins, and the senoritas are sweet
But they cant compete cause they just dont have
What the models have, on madison ave.
Its very nice to be footloose
With just a toothbrush and comb
Its oh so nice to be footloose
But your heart starts singin when your homeward wingin across the foam
And you know your fate is
Where the empire state is
All you contemplate is
The view from miss libertys dome
Its very nice to go travling
But its oh so nice to come home
You will find the maiden and the gay muchachas are rare
But they cant compare with that sexy line
That parades each day at sunset and vine
Its quite the life to play gypsy
And roam as gipsies will roam
Its quite the life to play gypsy
But your heart starts singin when your homeward wingin across the foam
And the hudson river
Makes you start to quiver
Like the latest flivver
Thats simply dripin with crome
Its very nice to go travling
But its oh so nice to come home
