    Ain't No Good Chain Gang
    Composer(s): Hal Bynum - Dave Kirby
    Performer(s): Waylon Jennings & Johnny Cash; Ed Bruce



    Bet it ain't rainin' back home
    Bet your sister's still on the phone
    Bet Momma's in the kitchen, cooking fried chicken
    Wishing that I hadn't done wrong

    Yeah, Momma, don't you worry about it none though
    Everything's gonna be all right, Momma
    They're teaching us a lot of new things in here, Momma
    Things like

    There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman
    And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James
    And you don't go writin' hot cheques, down in Mississippi
    And there ain't no good chain gang

    Papa's readin' yesterday's mail
    Wishin' that the hay was all baled
    I bet he's a-wishin', we could go fishin'
    And here I am a-laying in jail

    Well, Papa, don't you worry about it none now
    Everything's gonna be all right, Papa
    They're teaching us a lesson a day; we're learning pretty well, too
    We've already learned a whole lot of stuff already
    Things like

    There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman
    And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James
    And you don't go writin' hot cheques, down in Mississippi
    And there ain't no good chain gang

    There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman
    And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James
    And you don't go writin' hot cheques, down in Mississippi
    And there ain't no good chain gang

    There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman
    And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James
    And you don't go writin' hot cheques, down in Mississippi
    And there ain't no good chain gang ...

    When Judy Smiled
    Composer(s): Jimmy Dean; Casons
    Performer(s): Jimmy Dean



    Things would go at their usual pace
    The hustle and bustle as we ran life's race
    But the world somehow was a prettier place
    When Judy smiled

    And that's just what Judy'ld always do
    She made you feel that it was just for you
    And things that were old became shiny and new
    When Judy smiled

    The lovely hours, such joy, such fun
    A glance, a touch and my whole world spun an'
    I felt like a Hershey that was left in the sun
    When Judy smiled

    Then I saw a face that was filled with pain an'
    She hadn't known that I was near
    But for me, through eyes that were filled with tears
    I saw her smile.....
    Judy smiled

    Oh God why? Why her? Why now?
    Why not me? I deserve somehow
    But she'd never hurt anyone, she didn't know how
    She just smiled, she always smiled

    Through life's empty streets I walk
    See no faces and I hear no talk
    Flesh and blood that's turned to chalk
    'Cos she no longer smiles

    The blade thrust deep, my life ebbs slow
    God please forgive, but
    I gotta try to go
    To where Judy smiles

    Ain't No Fun (Waiting Round To Be A Millionaire)
    Composer(s): Bon Scott - Malcolm Young - Angus Young
    Performer(s): AC/DC



    The following is a true story
    Only the names have been changed
    To protect the guilty

    Well I left my job in my home town
    And I headed for the smoke
    Got a rock 'n' roll band and a fast right hand
    Gonna get to the top
    Nothing's gonna stop us, no nothing

    So if you've got the money, we've got the sound
    You put it up and we'll put it down
    If you've got the dollar, we've got the song
    Just wanna boogie woogie all night long
    Yeah boogie

    I got holes in my shoes
    I got holes in my teeth
    I got holes in my socks
    I can't get no sleep
    I'm trying to make a million

    And I got patches on the patches
    On my old blue jeans
    Well they used to be blue
    When they used to be new
    When they used to be clean

    But I've got a Mumma who's a hummer
    Just keeping me alive
    While I'm in the band doing drinking with the boys
    She's working 9 to 5
    She knows her place that woman

    Just you wait
    One of these days see me driving round town
    In my Rock 'n' Rolls Royce with the sun roof down
    My bottle of booze, no summer time blues
    Shouting out, "Look at me" in my rock 'n' roll voice

    No it ain't no fun, yeah
    Waiting round to be a millionaire
    No it ain't no fun
    Waiting round to be a millionaire

    Do you believe me
    It ain't no fun, no
    Waiting round to be a millionaire
    It ain't no fun, I don't care what they say
    Waiting round to be a millionaire

    Drive a Rolls Royce car
    No it ain't no fun, and you know it
    Waiting round to be a millionaire
    No, no, no, no, no, no, no
    No, ain't no fun
    Waiting round to be a millionaire

    Got a million dollar scream
    But it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun), oh no
    No it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun), that's what I said
    But it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun), and I wanna be rich
    No it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun), ain't no fun digging this bitch
    Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire, you better believe me
    Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire
    Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire
    No it ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire
    No it ain't no fun (ain't no fun)
    No it ain't no fun (ain't no fun)
    I ain't having no fun (ain't no fun)
    No it ain't no fun (ain't no fun)
    Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire, no no
    Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire
    Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire
    No it ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire

    "Hey Hello Howard, how ya doin'?
    "Next door neighbour?"
    "Oh yeah... Get your fuckin' jumbo jet off my airport"

    (Ain't no fun, ain't no fun)
    No it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun)
    Hey it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun)
    No it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun)
    Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire
    Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire
    No it ain't no fun, no it ain't no fun, ain't no fun
    (Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire)
    (Ain't no fun...)

    When Johnny Comes Marching Home
    Composer(s): Roger Edens; Louis Lambert
    Performer(s): Judy Garland



    When Johnny comes marching home again
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    We'll give him a hearty welcome then
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    Oh, the men will cheer the boys will shout
    The ladies they will all turn out
    And we'll all feel gay
    When Johnny comes marching home
    And we'll all feel gay
    When Johnny comes marching home

    Get ready for the Jubilee
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    We'll give the hero three times three
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    Well, the laurel wreath is ready now
    To place upon his loyal brow
    And we'll all feel gay
    When Johnny comes marching home
    And we'll all feel gay
    When Johnny comes marching home

    In eighteen hundred and sixty-one
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    That was when the war begun
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    In eighteen hundred and sixty-two
    Both sides were falling too
    And we'll all drink stone wine
    When Johnny comes marching home
    And we'll all drink stone wine
    When Johnny comes marching home

    In eighteen hundred and sixty-three
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    Old Abe, he ended slavery
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    In eighteen hundred and sixty-three
    Old Abe, he ended slavery
    And we'll all drink stone wine
    When Johnny comes marching home
    And we'll all drink stone wine
    When Johnny comes marching home

    In eighteen hundred and sixty-four
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    Abe called for five hundred thousand more
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    In eighteen hundred and sixty-five
    They talked rebellion--strife
    And we'll all drink stone wine
    When Johnny comes marching home
    And we'll all drink stone wine
    When Johnny comes marching home

    No Doubt About It
    Composer(s): Mike Burns - S. Glen - Donny Most
    Performer(s): Hot Chocolate



    If someone tells you there's no other form of life

    And you believe in that too
    I'm gonna tell you 'bout the other night

    I swear that true
    A cloud of white and gren and flying ships I've never seen

    Came into my view
    Was I frighted
    was I scared

    Was I thrown into confusion
    As they glided down so silently

    It wasn't an illusion
    Oh
    no doubt about it
    Oh
    no
    No doubt about it

    What kind of magnetism kept me in this place

    Was it out of my control?
    What was this ship from out of space?
    What was the creature that appeared before my eyes?
    Was it good
    was it evil

    On this ship from other skies?
    I was frighted
    I was scared

    I was thrown into confusion
    As they stood right there in front of me

    What can they be
    no illusion
    Oh
    no doubt about it
    Oh
    no
    No doubt about it

    Stood right there in front of me

    What can they be
    no illusion
    Oh
    no doubt about it
    Oh
    no
    No doubt about it

    Composer(s): Jack Segal; Robert Wells
    Performer(s): Tony Bennett;
    and various other artists



    Today is just another day, tomorrow is a guess
    But yesterday, oh, what I'd give for yesterday
    To relive one yesterday and its happiness

    When Joanna loved me
    Every town was Paris
    Every day was Sunday
    Every month was May

    When Joanna loved me
    Every sound was music
    Music made of laughter
    Laughter that was bright and gay

    But when Joanna left me
    May became December
    But, even in December, I remember
    Her touch, her smile, and for a little while

    She loves me
    And once again it's Paris
    Paris on a Sunday
    And the month is May

    Ain't No Cure For Love
    ((Swiss Version: Äs Git Kei Kur Gägs D'liäbi (by Sina) - 1995))
    Composer(s): Leonard Cohen
    First release by: Jennifer Warnes - 1986
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I've loved you for a long, long time
    I know this love is real
    It don't matter how it all went wrong
    That don't change the way I feel
    I don't believe that time can heal this wound I'm speaking of
    Ah, there ain't no cure
    There ain't no cure
    There ain't no cure for love

    I'm aching for you baby
    I can't pretend I'm not
    I love to see you naked
    In your body and your thought
    I've got you like a habit
    Oh I'll never get enough
    Ah, there ain't no cure
    There ain't no cure
    There ain't no cure for love

    There ain't no cure for love
    There ain't no cure for love
    No cure no drug, it's all been
    I can't get nothing done, and be with anyone
    I want your brother love, I want that other love
    And no cure for love

    I don't expect the melody
    Just because the things are rough
    And I seem became so careful
    To forget how good it were
    I've never given in
    Oh, I've never given up baby
    Ah, there ain't no cure
    There ain't no cure
    There ain't no cure for love
    Ain't no cure for love
    No cure no drug, no no
    I can't get nothing done, I can't be with anyone
    There ain't no cure for love

    Performer(s): Gene Autry;
    and various other artists



    The twilight shadows deepen into night, dear
    The city lights are gleaming o'er the snow
    I sit alone beside the cheery fire dear
    I'm dreaming dreams from out the long ago
    I fancy it is springtime in the mountain
    The flowers with their colors are aflame
    And ev'ry day I hear you softly saying
    "I'll wait until the springtime comes again"

    When it's springtime in the rockies
    I am coming back to you
    Little sweetheart of the mountains
    With your bonny eyes of blue
    Once again I'll say "I love you"
    While the birds sing all the day
    When it's springtime in the rockies
    In the rockies, far away

    When it's springtime in the rockies
    I am coming back to you
    Little sweetheart of the mountains
    With your bonny eyes of blue
    Once again I'll say "I love you"
    While the birds sing all the day
    When it's springtime in the rockies
    In the rockies, far away

    I've kept your image guarded in my heart, dear
    I've kept my love for you, as pure as dew
    I'm longing for the time when I shall come, dear
    Back to that dear, old western home and you
    I fancy it is springtime in the mountains
    The maple leaves in first sky-green appear
    I hear you softly say, my queen of Maytime
    "This springtime you have come to meet me here"

    When it's springtime in the rockies
    I am coming back to you
    Little sweetheart of the mountains
    With your bonny eyes of blue
    Once again I'll say "I love you"
    While the birds sing all the day
    When it's springtime in the rockies
    In the rockies, far away

    Composer(s): Billy Joel
    Performer(s): Billy Joel



    You got to open your eyes in the morning
    Nine o'clock comin' with out any warnin'
    And you gotta get ready to go
    You say you went out late last evenin'
    Did a lot of drinkin'
    Come home stinkin'
    And you went and fell asleep on the floor
    And then your lady comes and finds you asleepin'
    Starts in to weepin' 'bout the hours you been keepin'
    And you better get your ass out the door

    Ain't no crime
    Say ev'rybody gets that way some time
    Ain't no crime
    You know it's good to get it on to get a load off your mind
    Oh no, it ain't no crime
    Oh

    You got to open your eyes in the morning
    Nine o'clock comin' with out any warnin'
    And you gotta get ready to go
    Well now you tell me you love somebody
    And you'll love 'em forever
    You may love 'em forever
    But you won't like 'em all of the time
    Well now you tell me you need somebody for the rest of your life
    You might have somebody
    But you won't want 'em ev'ryday

    Ain't no crime
    Say ev'rybody gets that way some time
    Ain't no crime
    Well it's just human nature
    Happens all the time
    Oh no, it ain't no crime
    Oh

    And just as surely as the wind keeps blowin'
    The grass keeps growin'
    You gotta keep goin'
    And the Lord have mercy on your soul
    La, la la la

    When It's Springtime In Alaska (It's Forty Below)
    Composer(s): Tillman Franks; Johnny Horton
    Performer(s): Johnny Horton;
    and various other artists



    I mushed from Point Barrow through a blizzard of snow
    Been out prospectin' for two years or so
    Pulled into Fairbanks the city was a boom
    So I took a little stroll to the Red Dog Saloon

    As I walked in the door the music was clear
    The purtiest voice I had heard in two years
    The song she was singin' made a man's blood run cold
    When it's springtime in Alaska, it's forty below

    (When it's springtime in Alaska, it's forty below)

    It was Redheaded Lil who was singin' so sweet
    I reached down and took the snowpacks off my feet
    I reached for the gal who was singin' the tune
    We did the Eskimo Hop all around the saloon

    With a caribou crawl and the grizzly bear hug
    We did our dance on a kodiak rug
    The song she kept singin' made a man's blood run cold
    When it's springtime in Alaska, it's forty below

    I was as innocent as I could be
    I didn't know Lil was big Ed's wife to be
    He took out his knife and he gave it a throw
    When it's springtime in Alaska, I'll be six feet below

    (When it's springtime in Alaska, he'll be six feet below)

    No one to talk with
    All by myself
    No one to walk with
    But I'm happy on the shelf
    Ain't misbehavin'
    I'm savin' my love for you

    I know for certain
    The one I love
    I'm through with flirtin'
    It's just you I'm thinkin' of
    Ain't misbehavin'
    I'm savin' my love for you

    Like Jack Horner
    In the corner
    Don't go nowhere
    What do I care?
    Your kisses are worth waitin' for
    Believe me

    I don't stay out late
    Don't care to go
    I'm home about eight
    Just me and my radio
    Ain't misbehavin'
    I'm savin' my love for you

    and various other artists



    Pale moon shining on the fields below
    Folks are crooning songs soft and low
    Needn't tell me so, because I know
    It's sleepy time down south

    Soft winds blowing through the pinewood trees
    Folks down there live a life of ease
    When the twilight brings the evening breeze
    It's sleepy time down south

    Steamboats on the river a-comin' and a-goin'
    Splashing the night away
    Hear those banjos ringin', the folks are all a-singin'
    They dance till break of day

    Dear old southland, with its dreamy songs
    Takes me back there where I belong
    How I'd love to be in mother's arms
    When it's sleepy time down south

    Ain’t love funny, funny it’s funny
    Aint’ love funny that way
    She calls in the evening to tell me she’s back
    She likes to talk on the phone
    Would I come over and just rub her back
    Ain’t love funny, funny it’s funny
    Ain’t love funny you know
    This woman’s touch, it is too much
    Tingles right to the bone
    Her hand’s so slight with a wink in her eyes
    Keeps me comin’ back home
    She gives everything expects no return
    She’s always there when I’m down
    Love her a day, don’t go away
    Ain’t love funny, funny it’s funny
    Funny when it comes around
    We go on for hours about nothin’ at all
    We never know what it means
    Sometimes it’s easy, sometimes it’s not
    Ain’t love funny, funny it’s funny
    Funny it’s just what it seems

    (When It's) Orange Blossom Time In Loveland
    (I'll Be Waiting At The Church For You)
    Composer(s): Jeff Branen; Arthur Lange



    Don't you sigh, don't you cry, good times will soon be coming
    Springtime must come again By and by you and I
    a tune will soon be humming more like a wedding strain
    For the day is dawning near, I'll be with you never fear

    Winter's here, spring is near
    for time is ever flying
    soon we must welcome June
    Then my dear, never fear
    You'll have no time for sighing
    then's when we'll honeymoon
    With your sweetheart by your side
    you will be a blushing bride

    When it's orange blossom time in loveland
    don't forget to wear your wedding gown
    dress right up in style, wear your sweetest smile
    I'm coming, I'm coming, I'll soon be back in town
    When you hear those wedding bells a ringing
    then you'll understand just what to do
    When it's orange blossom time in loveland
    I'll be waiting at the church for you

    Ain't Livin' Long Like This
    Composer(s): Rodney Crowell
    Performer(s): Foghat
    and multiple other artists



    I looked for trouble and found it son
    Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun
    I'd try to run but I don't think I can

    If I move I'm a dead man

    Ain't livin' long like this
    I can't live at all like this can I baby
    He slipped the cuffs on behind my back
    Then left me freezing on a steel rail rack
    They got `em all in the jailhouse don't they baby
    I ain't livin' long like this
    Can't live at all like this can I baby

    Grew up in Houston off a wayside drive
    Son of a carhop in an all-night dive
    He drove a stock car to an early death
    All I remember is a drunk man's breath
    Ain't livin' long like this
    I can't live at all like this can I baby

    We know the story how the wheel goes `round
    Don't let `em take you to the man downtown
    I can't sleep at all in the jailhouse can I baby
    Ain't livin' long like this
    I can't live at all like this can I baby

    I live for Angel she's the roadhouse queen
    Make Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee
    I want to love her but I don't know how

    I'm at the bottom of the jailhouse now
    Ain't livin' long like this
    I can't live at all like this can I baby

    You know the story `bout the jailhouse rock
    Go on and do it just don't get caught
    They got `em all in the jailhouse don't they baby
    Ain't livin' long like this
    I can't live at all like this can I baby

    Ain't livin' long like this
    I swear I can't live at all like this can I baby
    Oh baby
    Take it home for me
    Ain't livin' long like this am I baby

    When It's Night-Time In Italy
    It's Wednesday Over Here
    Composer(s): Lew Brown; James Kendis
    Performer(s): The Everly Brothers;
    and various other artists



    A Rah-Rah-Rah-Rah college boy threw all his books away
    He said, "I've lost my appetite, my hair is turning grey
    I know my Greek and History, and Latin is a "pie"
    But if East is East and West is West, then won't you tell me why

    When it's night time in Italy it's Wednesday over here
    When it's fish day in Germany
    You can't get shaved in Massachusetts
    How high is up? I'd like to know
    How low is down? And when will we have snow?
    If you bump into Gallager you'll find that Sean is near
    When it's night-time in Italy it's Wednesday over here"

    When it's night time in Italy it's Wednesday over here
    When it's Christmas in Albany
    They're catching fish in Scandinavia
    That's right, you're wrong
    No, no; you're wrong; that's right
    Although the days are long
    It's always cool at night
    If you can't play the piccolo
    The holidays are near
    When it's night time in Italy and Wednesday over here

    This Rah-Rah-Rah-Rah college boy stood up in class and said
    "I looked up my Geography, and found out Ceasar's dead!
    The reason I speak Portuguese is I'm some clever guy
    But if "parley vous" means "how are you"
    then won't you tell me why

    When it's night-time in Italy it's Wednesday over here
    All the onions in Sicily make people cry in California
    You drive a horse. I drive a Ford
    That doesn't prove a sailor is a board
    If you talk to an Eskimo his breath will freeze your ear
    When it's night-time in Italy it's Wednesday over here

    When it's night-time in Italy it's Wednesday over here
    When it's wash day in Piccardy
    They're eating ice cream cones in Georgia
    Sixteen and four makes thirty one
    Take eight from five and your day's work is done
    There are people who hesitate, but corned-beef makes them cheer
    When it's night-time in Italy and Wednesday over here

    When it's night time in Italy, it's Wednesday over here
    When the wind blows in Louisville
    I always dream of Julius Caesar
    Young folks are young, of course
    And old folks are old, why not
    Fire is very hot, but ice is sometimes cold
    Try and fondle a porcupine, what makes ice cream so dear?
    When it's night time in Italy, it's Wednesday over here

    I saw a Chinaman
    Fight a Scandinavian
    Up steped an Englishman, and said, "I'd like to speak
    Why kick this man around?
    Why strike him when he's down?
    Just hit him with a hammer and then bite him on his cheek!"

    Up stepped an Irish cop
    Who said, "This fight will have to stop
    I'd like to know what the scrap is all about"
    They said, "When we tell you
    It will drive you nutty too"
    And so they held the traffic up while they tried to figure out

    When it's night-time in Italy, it's Wednesday over here
    When the snow falls in Araby
    They're squeezing grapes in California
    Look at you here. Grass on the dew
    Leather shoes are black, but other shoes are new
    If there's sunshine in Washington, what makes the moonshine dear?
    When it's night time in Italy, it's Wednesday over here

    If you lay on a mattress, you'll find that spring is near
    If you haven't an appetite, just think of Paul Revere
    By the time that they pass a bill to bring back wine and beer
    It'll be night-time in Italy and Wednesday over here

    Temptation
    Composer(s): Tom Waits
    Performer(s): Tom Waits



    Rusted brandy in a diamond glass
    everything is made from dreams
    time is made from honey slow and sweet
    only the fools know what it means
    temptation, temptation, temptation
    oh, temptation, temptation, I can't resist
    I know that she is made of smoke
    but I've lost my way
    she knows that I am broke
    so that I must play
    temptation, temptation, temptation
    oh, whoa, temptation, temptation, I can't resist
    Dutch pink and Italian blue
    she is waiting there for you
    my will has disappeared
    now my confusion's oh so clear
    temptation, temptation, temptation
    whoa, whoa, temptation, temptation

    When It's Moonlight On The Rio Grande
    Composer(s): Casper Nathan; Earl K. Smith



    Oh, Mandy Lee, your smile is haunting me
    and in my dreams it always seems
    I'm going back to scenes that used to be
    when we stood beside the dear old Rio Grande

    Oh, Mandy Lee, there's joy for you and me
    beside the stream where we could dream of golden days
    the days that used to be when we strolled beside the dear old Rio Grande

    When it's moonlight on the Rio Grande, and the stars shine on the gleaming sand
    that's the time I'm coming back to see if the moonlight brings your love to me
    When the moonbeams gleam up on the dew I will tell my love for you
    I'll be coming back to claim your hand when it's moonlight on the Rio Grande

    Sex
    Temptation
    Lust
    Pop go mama

    Everybody on this earth has got a vice
    And mine, little darlin', mine is the opposite of ice
    Mine is the running hot water of the daughter of morality
    In other words, this little prince thinks a lot about U, see?
    Baby, baby, baby
    I'm guilty in the first degree

    Temptation
    Working my body with a hot flash of animal lust
    Temptation
    All my fingers in the pool go splash we must

    Everybody in this room
    Everybody in this room has got an urge
    What's yours, baby?
    Mine is temptation, it reigns at a party where lovers splurge
    Pop go mama when daddy gets a little 2 much
    You know what I'm talkin' 'bout?
    Purplelectricity whenever our bodies touch
    Ooh baby, I love it when our bodies touch

    Temptation
    Working my body with a hot flash of animal lust
    Temptation
    All my fingers in the pool go splash we must

    Temptation, temptation, temptation

    Wait a minute now

    Temptation
    Working my body with a hot flash of animal lust
    Temptation
    All my fingers in the pool go splash we must

    Temptation
    Working my body, working my body, working my body

    Temptation
    I'm not talkin' about just ordinary temptation, people
    I'm talking about the kind of temptation that'll make U do things
    Oh, oh, temptation
    Oh, darling, I can almost taste the wetness between your... temptation, temptation
    I'm not talking about any ol' kind of temptation, people
    I'm talkin' about, I'm talkin' about... sexual temptation
    A lover
    I need a lover, a lover, I need a...right now
    U, I want U
    I want U in the worst way
    I want U

    "Oh, silly man, that's not how it works
    You have 2 want her 4 the right reasons"

    I do!

    "U don't, now die!"

    No! No!

    Let me go, let me go

    I'm sorry
    I'll be good
    This time I promise
    Love is more important than sex
    Now I understand
    I have 2 go now
    I don't know when I'll return
    Good-bye

    When It's Moonlight In Tokio
    Composer(s): Bobby Heath; Charles P. Shisler; Billy James



    Dear old Japan I hear you calling me, though I am far away
    I dream of you, too, though all the night and day
    I have spent my time in many lands
    I've seen beauty everywhere
    but Tokyo, when bathed in moonlight's glow is beauty sweet and rare

    I long to go to dear old Tokyo, beneath those Eastern skies
    its gardens fair and poppy perfumed air, bring dreams of paradise
    Japanese lovers strolling though the town, lanterns swinging to and fro
    each moonlight Jap lover's hearts are bright, in dear old Tokyo

    When it's moonlight in Tokyo, mid the flowers
    when the lanterns are burning low, Happy Hours!
    every girlie in old Japan finds she's loving some Japanese man
    sings while holding his little hand: "Hurry up, hurry up, I'm waiting"
    Down through Japanese Lover's Lane they are strolling
    each boy humming the same refrain
    "My butterfly, I love but you, tell me you love me true"
    when it's moonlight in Tokyo!
