I was totin’ my crackers along the dusty red Leicester road
When along came a cheeky chutney with a high an’ canvas-covered load
“If you're goin’ to Stinkin’ Bishop, Mack, with me you can ride”
And so I climbed into the cab, and then I settled down inside
He asked me if I’d like a port and stilton in my hand
And I said, “Listen, I’ve eaten every cheese in this here land”

I’ve been everywhere, man
I’ve been everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man
I’ve breathed the mountain air, man
Of cheddar I’ve had my share, man
I’ve been everywhere

I’ve been everywhere, man
I’ve been everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man

I’ve been everywhere
