I'm gonna take a holiday, be somewhere far away
I won't be back for awhile, for a long, long time
I wanna get away from the west to the place that I like best
And where the nights are long and the girls are pretty

I'm goin' to rock till I drop, around the clock
And never ever gonna stop, gonna send you a postcard from Hanoi
I won't be comin' back so beware, my baby
I am ten thousand miles away

The Chinese girls make me happy, it's enough if I tell 'em
I'm not from the U.S.A. and they believe every word I say
Hanoi rocks every morning, at night I'll fall asleep
To the smell of romance, as I see my geisha girl dance

I'm goin' to rock till I drop, around the clock
And never ever gonna stop, gonna send you a postcard from Hanoi
I won't be comin' back so beware, my baby
Well, I am ten thousand miles away

Round and round the world goes around
I used to believe I was such a happy guy
Now, I've found my place on earth
Leavin' for Europe just can't be worth

Baby, baby, won't you take my hand, to Hokkaido garden
Well, you understand, propaganda surrounds us
But never mind what they say, I ain't goin' back home
I ain't goin' back home

Chinese guys make me happy but it's enough if I tell 'em
I'm not from the U.S.A. and they believe every word I say
There is no holiday, 'cause holiday is every day
And let me tell you the truth, if I leave I'd be a fool

I'm goin' to rock till I drop, around the clock
And never ever gonna stop, gonna send you a postcard from Hanoi
I won't be comin' back so beware, my baby
Well, I am ten thousand miles away
