Let's take a boat to Bermuda,
Let's take a plane to St Paul,
Let's grab a kayak
To Quincey O'Nayak,
Let's get away from it all!

Let's take a trip in a trailer,
No need to come back at all!
Let's take a powder
To Boston for chowder,
Let's get away from it all!

We'll travel round from town to town,
We'll visit every state;
I'll repeat "I love you sweet!"
In all the forty eight!

Let's go again to Niagara,
This time we'll peek at the falls!
Let's leave our hut dear,
Get out of our rut dear
Let's get away from it all!

We'll travel round from town to town,
We'll visit every state,
And I'll repeat that I love you sweet
In all the forty eight!

Let's go again to Niagara,
This time we'll dig the falls!
Let's leave our hut dear,
Get out of our rut dear
Let's get away from it all!
