All the Girls of Okinawa

I'm not sure I want to tell the story behind this one. Just don't let your parents or children read and/or listen.

It's really only appropriate in Navy bars and Irish pubs.

{chorus}
(G) (F)
All the girls of Okinawa look at me!
(G) (F)
All the girls of Okinawa look at me!
(C) (G)
All the girls of Okinawa, All the girls of Okinawa,
(G) (F)
All the girls of Okinawa look at me!
(C)
Look at me!

(G) (F)
I'm dancin' on the corner of the bar
(G) (F)
curved like an American car
(G) (F)
you try to take my hand but I say no
(C) (G)
go on home G.I. Joe go on home
(F)
"baby," you say, "Ain't no Joe, I'm a Navy Jack,
(G) (F)
now turn around, take a step back
(C)
and let me tap that ass!"

{repeat chorus}

I confess a woman like me is always alone
and I've really got no reason to go home
I know you want me to take you away
and love you 'til the break of day
"baby, that ain't the way, I just wanna hug"
ha that's a lie if ever was one
"now get down and let me tear that rug"

{repeat chorus}

(G) (F)
In the morning when we wake up
(G) (F)
You promise me I didn't screw up
(C) (G)
that you'll love me forever
(F)
write me every day
(G) (F) (C)
Even though I'm goin' to a land so far away

{chorus}

Note: play it loud play it fast, and probably to a drunk audience. The parts in quotes are for a guy to sing or a girl if you do that. I don't judge - clearly. anyway! Slows down a bit with the morning part but then picks right back up into the chorus.
