Lyrics -copyright 1983.
|
|
Intro./Chorus.
|
|
This is Tokyo Rose interfering with your radio show.
|
|
Just to say a few words like :-
|
|
Yankee Go Home leave us alone, Yankee Go Home.
|
|
Yankee Go Home leave us alone, Yankee Go Home.
|
|
Verse1.
|
|
She was a lady back in forty five.
|
|
She had to tell the Allies they were gonna die.
|
|
From the Sands of Hiroshima to the Banks on Bunker Hill
|
|
You could always here her name.
|
|
Tokyo Rose.
|
|
And she would Broadcast all over the world.
|
|
This high class society Eastern Girl .
|
|
Now it's sometimes said on certain Airways if you listen
|
|
carefully you can hear her say.
|
|
Intro./Chorus.
|
|
Verse2.
|
|
Now the boys thought of her as a joke.
|
|
You know they even used to mimic the way she spoke.
|
|
From the Back streets of London to the Highways of LA.
|
|
You could always here her name.
|
|
Tokyo Rose.
|
|
Now the boys went to Hell and Back .
|
|
Listening all the time for the odd broadcast.
|
|
Now it's sometimes said on certain Airways if you listen
|
|
carefully you can hear her say.
|
|
Intro./Chorus.
|
|
Now the years the years have past by.
|
|
Where's Tokyo Rose well she's probably died
|
|
She was the first to say Yankee Go Home.
|
|
But we Thank God today that those Yankees won.
