Gonna travel, gonna travel wild and free
I'm gonna pack my bags because
this great big world is calling me
Every pretty girl's gonna know I'm around
They're gonna know I'm in town on a harem holiday

Twenty women, twenty women by my side
I'm gonna kiss them all,
because I've gotta keep 'em satisfied
Gonna have the best time money can buy
I'm gonna be flying high on a harem holiday

If Romeo had a harem holiday
You can bet that Juliet would have
never been his girl forever

Gonna go back, gonna catch that midnight plane
Twenty dancing girls are waiting
just to call my name
Gonna have a ball, I ain't gonna waste no time
I'm gonna make 'em all mine on a harem holiday

If Romeo had a harem holiday
You can bet that Juliet would have
never been his girl forever

Gonna travel, gonna travel wild and free
I'm gonna pack my bags because
this great big world is calling me
Every pretty girl's gonna know I'm around
They're gonna know I'm in town on a harem holiday

I've always admired this very tremendous, fun, overlooked and underrated song a whole lot. It's one of hundreds of very seldom "known about" jewels recorded by King Elvis. The vast majority of people have absolutely no clue that Elvis recorded many hundreds of great songs. I've always liked the movie "Harum Scarum" a whole lot. It's totally unlike any other Elvis movie. Elvis will definitely always be #1. This video was absolutely perfect in every way, 10 Stars as always Jackie.
