My girl Friday she no square
|
She like lotus blossom in her hair
|
Be-bop records and something new
|
Sometimes borrowed but she's never blue
|
Oh no........not Tokyo Joe
|
|
Way past midnight - she not home
|
She cut the ice down the Danger Zone
|
Water-tight dresses - she don't care
|
A trifle risqu? a tart, no sir........
|
Oh no........sounds like Tokyo Joe
|
|
Geisha girl show you she adore you
|
Two oriental eyes implore you
|
Femme fatale or ingenue?
|
She very cunning, fiendish clever
|
Geisha girl suffer many times a fool
|
Sayonara moon
|
When all the world's a stage, oh where are you?
|
|
Tokyo Rose on the radio
|
Or Diz 'n Bird puttin' on the moan
|
Tappin' out telexes to Tupelo
|
Dear John, doh ra me fah so?
|
Let's go........call for Tokyo Joe
|
|
Walkin' tall down the Danger Zone
|
She hokey-kokey till the cows come home
|
Big shot - from the hip - neon cool
|
Say, when you've been around, what's left to do?
|
Don't know? Ask Tokyo Joe
|
|
So inscrutable her reply
|
"Ask no question and tell me no lie"
|
|
GI boys howlin' out for more
|
VIP'S purrin' "je t'adore"........
|
Ah so........that's Tokyo Joe
|
