East West over the ocean 
 Perpetual motion, travelling around 
 No rest, singing and playing 
 Night out and day in, doing the rounds 
 What a great life it must seem 
 (what a great life it must seem) 
    Swell joints, everything classy 
 Nothing that's pass? only the best 
 Lush girls ogling and eyeing 
 Crying and sighing, this is success 
 What a great life it must seem 
 (what a great life it must seem)   
 But when I hear young voices singing out 
 The bells at home come ringing out 
 When I think all alone 
 When I think of my home   
 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 
 (what a great life it must seem)   
 But when I hear young voices singin' out 
 The bells at home come ringing out 
 When I feel all alone 
 Then I long for my home
