Words & Music by: Rattlesnake Annie
Yutaka Hosoi
Nihon Blues
I’m down and out here in Tokyo
Everybody’s talking in Nihon-go
I’m lonely, got the Nihon blues
Running fast and trying to get rich quick
Eating little bitty things with little bitty sticks
I’m hungry, got the Nihon blues.
In my southern drawl y’all just talking to myself
Can’t find no honkytonk, shouchu and sake is all I’ve got left
My bicycle’s lost down in Shinjuku
I left the restaurant wearing somebody else’s shoes
I’m so confused, got the Nihon blues
I eat my catfish good and dead not wiggling on my plate
Give me chicken Dixie fried, yakatori on a stick, oh I can wait
Down and out here in Tokyo
Everybody’s talking in Nihon-go
I’m lonely, got the Nihon blues
