It's Nice to go Trav'ling

"It's Nice to go Trav'ling" is a Sammy Cahn and Jimmy Van Heusen song featured in Frank Sinatra's 1958 album Come Fly With Me. The song is the final track of the original album and tells the glory of going traveling world-wide, but the song ends with a bit of "relief" of coming back home.

Lyrics
It's very nice to go trav'ling To Paris London and Rome It's oh so nice to go trav'ling But it's so much nicer, yes it's so much nicer, to come home

It's very nice to just wander The camel route to Iraq It's oh so nice to just wander But it's so much nicer, yes it's oh so nice, to wander back

The mam'selles and frauleins, and the senoritas are sweet But they can't compete 'cause they just don't have What the models have, on Madison Ave.

It's very nice to be footloose With just a toothbrush and comb It's oh so nice to be footloose But your heart starts singin' when your homeward wingin' across the foam

And you know your fate is Where the Empire State is All you contemplate is The view from Miss Liberty's dome

It's very nice to go trav'ling But it's oh so nice to come home

You will find the maiden and the gay muchachas are rare But they can't compare with that sexy line That parades each day at Sunset and Vine

It's quite the life to play gypsy And roam as Gipsies will roam It's quite the life to play gypsy But your heart starts singin' when your homeward wingin' across the foam

And the Hudson River Makes you start to quiver Like the latest flivver That's simply dripin' with crome

It's very nice to go trav'ling But it's oh so nice to come home
