Going Back to Okinawa lyrics

by

Johnny Cash


[Verse 1]
Goin' back down to Okinawa
Sorry, baby, but I can't take you
You better stay at home in California
There's nothing over there that you can do

Goin' back down to Okinawa
Ain't gonna do me like you've done before
They treat me like a king down in Okinawa
And I ain't never comin' back no more

[Verse 2]
It's just an island floating in the sun
Everybody's having so much fun
Pretty mamas laying in the sand
Sure do know how to treat your man

Okinawian baby, won't you come by me?
Sun going down in the China Sea
Making love on the beach all night
Okinawa moon is shining so bright

[Verse 3]
Folks in Okinawa sure have fun
They get together when the working day's done
Drinking cheap wine and making romance
While some old man's doing the Okina dance
Back in the days of World War II
Fought against the Japanese like me and you
Everybody's worried ‘bout a World War III
Okinawa's just the place that I'm gonna be

[Outro]
Going back to Okinawa
Sorry, but I can't take you
Never coming back no more, baby
