I have heard about the songs of Os, I saw the lilting Gaels
The voices of Bulgaria I love, I listened to the sound of the whales
[chorus:]
Here I come, here I go all the way to Tokyo
With my harp and my guitar in my hand
And I look through the haze of this burning summer days
For a Japanese rock ′n roll-band
I read about the sound of Jericho, I played trumpet in Rio Grande
But all I′m really longing for is a Japanese rock ′n roll-band
[chorus]
I have heard the angels sing, please do not misunderstand
But never I′ve heard and never I′ve seen a Japanese rock ′n roll band
[chorus]
I′ve been to Jokohama, I′ve been to Sapporo
Morioka, Kiushu, Oshima-Island
I have eaten sushi, I have tasted wan-chong-sou
Will I ever find my Japanese rock-band?
I haven′t found what I′m looking for, to Munich in Bavaria I went
Suddenly I saw musicians around from a Japanese rock ′n roll-band
[chorus:]
Here I come, here I go all the way from Tokyo
With my harp and my guitar in my hand
Oh my God, I cried, a Bavarian night
With a Japanese rock ′n roll-band
[chorus:]
Here I come, here I go far away from Tokyo
With my harp and my guitar in my hand
And I stamp my feet to the rhythm of the beat
Of a Japanese rock ′n roll-band
[chorus:]
Here I come, here I go for a gig to Tokyo
With my harp and my guitar in my hand
Now I′m playing my gong and I′m singing my songs
In my Japanese rock ′n roll-band
[chorus:]
Here I come, here I go to the girls in Tokyo
With my harp and my guitar in my hand
Now I am a star of the Nippon Boulevard
And my Japanese rock ′n roll-band
