        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
     A#     G#  F      A#   D#
        Oh no... not Tokyo Joe

        Way past midnight — she not home
        She cut the ice down the Danger Zone
        Watertight 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
         C#    F#     D#     G#
        Two oriental eyes implore you
          D#              G#
        Femme fatal or ingenue?
         C#        F#        D#      G#
        She very cunning, fiendish clever
         C#           F#    D#    G#     D#
        Geisha girl suffer many times a fool
             G#
        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' our 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 me tell no lie"
        GI boys howlin' out for more
        VIP'S purrin' "je t'adore"...
        Ah so... that's Tokyo Joe
