Rickie Lee Jones - Nagasaki Lyrics

Rickie Lee Jones Lyrics

"Nagasaki"

Hot gingerbread and dynamite
That's all there is at night
Back in Nagasaki where the fellows chew tobaccky
And the women wicky-wacky-woo

They got a way that they entertain
They wouldn't hurry a hurricane
Back in Nagasaki where the fellows chew tobaccky
And the women wicky-wacky-woo

Fujiama, get a mama
Then your troubles increase, boy
It's South Dakota you want a soda
First shake me then ten cents please

They hug and kiss each night
By jingo, boys, it's worth that price
Back in Nagasaki where the fellows chew tobaccky
And the women wicky-wacky-woo

Back in Nagasaki where the fellows chew tobaccky
And the women wicky-wacky-woo
