Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All around the world
We could make timerompin' and a stompin'
'Cause I'm in my prime

Born in the north and sworn to entertain ya
'Cause I'm down for the state of Pennsylvania

I try not to whineut I must warn ya
'Bout the girls from California

Alabama baby said hallelujah
Good god girl I wish I knew ya

I know I know for sure
That life is beautiful around the world
I know I know it's you
You say hello and then I say I do

Come back baby 'cause I'd like to say
I've been around the world back from bombay

Fox hole love pie in your face
Living in and out of a big fat suitcase

Bonafide ride step aside my Johnson
Yes I could in the woods of Wisconsin

Wake up the cake it's a lake she's kissin' me
As they do when when they do in sicily

I know I know for sure
That life is beautiful around the world
I know I know it's you
You say hello and then I say I do

Where you want to go who you want to be
What you want to do just come with me

I saw god and I saw the fountains
You and me girl sittin' in the Swiss mountains

Me oh my o, me and guy o
Freer than a bird 'cause we're rockin' ohio

Around the world
I feel dutiful
Take a wife 'cause life is beautiful

I know I know for sure
Ding dang dong dong ding dang dong dong ding dang
I know I know its you
Ding dang dong dong ding dang dong dong ding dang

Mother Russia do not suffer
I know you're bold enough
I've been around the world And I have seen your love
I know I know it's you





You say hello then I say I do

Fun fact about the ding dong bing bong part:

When the band first wrote this song they had the melody ready but still didn’t have the lyrics for the song, so instead of singing words, their plan was to use the ding-dongs until they had something else. When they finally did, they went back to the studio to record the song. Flea’s daughter heard the new version and, disappointed, told her dad she missed the ding-dongs, so the band decided to bring them back, albeit only for the last chorus.

@YurrWhat

I remember hearing The Black Keys do the same kind thing when they write a song. It was on the Joe Rogan podcast. I'm pretty sure most people use that for writing lyrics.

@rockreviews3576

@@YurrWhat it does help but I think some people just have it in their bones to write music and not have to do that.
