Yokohama Blues

Lyrics

My papers were not in order And I've only myself to blame Now I'm stranded in Yokohama On a street with no name Sipping sake under the stars In a small suburban yard With a sweet camellia tree For company Pale as a lily From the flower and willow world Part geisha, part go-go dancer This beautiful girl Under the summit of Mount Fuji On the brink of a breaking dawn By train to Kamakura Where the Samurai creed was born And then it was on to Yokohama And back to her home She gave me a golden fleece Then left me alone I wish I was high in the sky With a vodka My Visa stamped with a government seal And one mile below me Receding slowly This girl whose heart I could steal But I need a letter from a doctor Before I get my silver wings So, I'm praying to old Buddha To pull some strings Will I be home for Christmas To lay these presents under the tree? Gifts from Electric City For my friends and family I'm trying to lose These Yokohama blues I'm trying to lose These Yokohama blues I'm trying to lose These Yokohama blues I'm trying to lose I'm trying to lose These Yokohama blues I'm trying to lose These Yokohama blues I'm trying to lose These Yokohama blues I'm trying to lose Yokohama blues Yokohama blues Yokohama blues Yokohama blues
