Tokyo Joe

I was dreaming of Tokyo again
With a pocket full of yen to spin
Sipping sake all alone
I had a table for one

Suddenly it was you and me
Left me half in tears
It's the august moon
In the land of the rising sun

You called me Tokyo Joe, oh, oh
You were my rose in Tokyo
I still love you so, oh
Arso, did you misunderstand

Saying sayonara may you cry
That's not what I meant when I said goodbye
How could I forget the love which you & I
Made in Japan

From the orient to 'temply' bay
You know it's half a world away
you daddy & mama suffered
Said you could not go

So this American boy sailed on home
Left his Japanese girl alone
My heart stayed there with you in Tokyo
