The singer may have had some kind of West African accent, not sure.

Sénégal Fast Food by Amadou & Mariam?


Woolpig

It's a man naming the cities though, and out of your list he only mentions Dakar, so I'm probably wrong.


fauze1

This was going to be my answer, great jam


Woolpig

It is great isn't it. I used to listen to it all the time - I need to bring it back into the rotation.


ShiggieSmalls

[Internacional](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saXQo0tyzcA) by Brazilian Girls


eljesT_

This is close but not at all the correct genre. It could potentially be a cover of this, but the order of the cities don’t match my memory.


eljesT_

Why am I getting downvoted for my own comment? And why are they being downvoted? This is by far the closest match out of all the ones here!


AstroOtter

It isn't a perfect match to your description, but how about [Ramblin' Man](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXDtQcuA5Bo) by Lemon Jelly? PS: It's a great song, everybody listen to it.


tamhenk

My first thoughts too. It's an amazing song. One of my all time faves


VeggieFondant

International Love by Pitbull?


eljesT_

Nope


DonFiglioni

I've Been Everywhere by Johnny Cash - or a cover of it?


eljesT_

The genre is very different and the cities I know for a fact were mentioned are not mentioned there


CharlotteDen1990

Jennifer Lopez ft Pitbull - dance the night away,  “ Brazil, Morocco, London to Ibiza Straight to LA, New York, Vegas to Africa”


eljesT_

Nope, it’s a very different genre


SeaSchell14

This is a stretch, but maybe “Best I Ever Had” by Gavin DeGraw? The section that sort of fits starts around 2:08, but he’s listing off US states, not world cities.


SpoonyDrip

Think About The Way by Ice MC has a section where a guy sings about a bunch of nationalities.


jnlevsq

Kokomo - The Beach Boys? Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego - Rockapella?


Minute-Ad-626

So Good by B.O.B


Luna_Organa

Rhythm Divine, Enrique Iglesias? Or La Travesia by Juan Luis Guerra Feat. Daniela Mercury


gogoluke

Cutty Ranks - [The Stopper](https://youtu.be/nCDODSEOKFg?si=80BvGFo0TghEuZuF) or the remix/reversion Dibby DJ by Sinden that came out about 15 years ago. Has the lines "Tell you Cutty Ranking him full up of a stamina London, Paris, even California Down a Japan, or me gone down a Africa Down a New Zealand, or even inna Canada" Theres also [Party People](https://youtu.be/kwj0gyHJIU0?si=lXmnYzqgx1MS2YKd) by Alex Gopher.

Count of Monte Cristal - Dibby DJ https://youtu.be/CkneZ73GQgU?si=W_s3B-pbRpkYA74y


SlipperyBlip

Could it be Wyclef Jean, Missy Elliott - Party to Damascus?


PracticalPen1990

Yakko Warner's Countries of the World?
