00:00There's a dainty little Oriental babe, She lives way down in Tokyo.

00:11She is just as cute as any maid could be, And her eyes with love-light glow.

00:18Lo, the love is fighting far away, Beneath the flag of old Japan.

00:26Her heart forlorn with fear is torn, And she sings this haunting day,

00:34In such a fascinating, captivating way.

00:40My heart is with you, soldier lad, I dream of you all day.

00:47Oh, soldier boy, I love you so, My heart shall never stray.

00:55As long as stars in heaven shine, As long as skies are blue,

01:03Whatever be tide, I'll be your little bride, For I'm waiting, soldier love, for you.

01:11But she little knows, That beneath Russian snows,

01:15Her soldier lad is laid away.

01:19Hit the shot and shell, In the raging fight,

01:23He fell as he joined the deadly fray.

01:27My heart is with you, soldier lad, I dream of you all day.

01:35Oh, soldier boy, I love you so.

01:39My heart is with you, soldier lad, I dream of you all day.

01:53Oh, soldier boy, I love you so.

02:01Every day she sighs, And looks with longing eyes,

02:06Oh, soldier lad, come back to me, Her friends know well, but never tell,

02:13And they hear her sing this lay, In such a fascinating, captivating way.
