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
ย
Way past midnight, she not home
She cut the ice down the Danger Zone
Water-tight dresses, she don't care
A trifle risquรฉ, a tart, no sir...
Oh no... sounds like Tokyo Joe
ย
Geisha girl show you she adore you
Two oriental eyes implore you
ย
Femme fatale or ingenue?
ย
She very cunning, fiendish clever
Geisha girl suffer many times a fool
Sayonara moon
When all the world's a stage
ย
Oh where are you?
Tokyo Rose on the radio
ย
Or Diz 'n Bird puttin' on the moan
Tappin' out telexes to Tupelo
Dear John, doh ray me fah so?
ย
Let's go... call for Tokyo Joe
Walkin' tall down the Danger Zone
ย
She hokey-cokey 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
ย
So inscrutable her reply
"Ask me no question and me tell you no lie"
GI boys howlin' out for more
VIP's purrin' "je t'adore"...
Ah so... that's Tokyo Joe
