| She just jumped on a plane
|
| Paid no attention to me
|
| Gave me no notice
|
| But her goodbyes sure were sweet
|
| Said she’s gonna write
|
| Maybe call me up
|
| She checked her bags
|
| And then she broke my heart
|
| She kissed my cheek
|
| And told me not to keep in touch
|
| I said the Rising Sun just stole my girl away
|
| The Rising Sun just stole my girl away
|
| The Rising Sun just stole my girl
|
| I’m gonna catch a plane and steal her back again
|
| The Rising Sun just stole my girl away
|
| Now we’re apart
|
| I think about her everyday
|
| Well the scuffle of little feet
|
| All round the bed
|
| I’m gettin' no cards, gettin' no mail
|
| Tokyo Rose is on the radio
|
| If she don’t come home
|
| I know that’s where I’m gonna go
|
| They’re buying our beaches
|
| Sellin' transistors
|
| Them little folk look real big
|
| If they think that they can take her away
|
| I’m gonna steal her back again. |
| .. Shake!
|
| I said the Rising Sun just stole my girl away
|
| The Rising Sun just stole my girl away
|
| The Rising Sun just stole my girl
|
| Gonna catch a plane and steal her back again
|
| The Rising Sun just stole my girl away |
