Various Artists - Pearl Harbor Blues - Doctor Clayton lyrics

December the seven Nineteen hundred and forty-one On December the seven Nineteen hundred and forty-one The Japanese flew over Pearl Harbor Droppin' bombs by the ton The Japanese is so ungrateful Just like a stray dog on the street Yes, the Japanese is ungrateful Like a stray dog on the street Well, he'll bite the hand that feeds him Soon as he get enough to eat Some say the Japanese is hard fighters But any dummy ought to know Some said the Japanese is hard fighters But any dummy ought to know Even a rattlesnake won't bite you in your back He will warn you before he strikes his blow I turned on my radio And I heard Mr. Roosevelt say I turned on my radio And I heard Mr. Roosevelt say We wanted to stay out of Europe an Asia But now, we all got a debt to pay We even sold the Japanese Bra** an scrap iron An it makes my blood boil in the vein We even sold the Japanese Bra** an scrap iron An it makes my blood boil in the vein 'Cause they made bombs and shells Out of it And they dropped them on Pearl Harbor Just like rain. ~
