Standard (EADGBE)

East West over the ocean, perpetual motion, travelin' around,

 No rest, singing and playing, night out and day in doin' the rounds.

What a great life it must seem

Chorus

But when I hear young voices singing out

 the bells at home start ringing out

 But I feel all alone

Then I long for my home.

Swell joints everything classy, nothing that's passe,

Only the best.

Lush girls ogling and eyeing, crying and sighing

this is success

What a great life it must seem.

Chorus

Mom, Dad all round the fire, in festive attire,

keeping the day.

Aunts, kids all the relations,

congratulations,

this is success

what a great life it must seem.

Chorus
