Lyrics:

Tokyo, Oklahoma is on the line
Is this Hiroshima seven-nine-eight-o-five?
I have a person to person for miss So-Ling-Foo
This is Tulsa, Oklahoma, ma`am, is that you?

'I have your party waitin` sir,' the operator said
Tokyo`s on the line in Tulsa, go ahead
I started to smile when she said to me
'This is So-Ling-Foo, who`s calling please?'
'This is Tok-San Itchy-Ban, So-Ling-Foo
And your number one cowboy`s missing you'

Tokyo, Oklahoma is lonely tonight
Pretty geisha girl, you are on my mind
Dark clouds hangin` over Tulsa skies
Tokyo, Oklahoma is lonely tonight

Oh well, we talked and we talked on into the night
I was on the early mornin` western red-eye flight
Due to turbulent weather, we were way overtime
And we taxied into Tokyo`s terminal D-9

I stepped off of Pan-Am`s flight twenty-two
I kept on lookin` but I couldn`t find So-Ling-Foo
I was headed for the lounge the arrow pointed to
When an oriental angel stepped from the ladies room

She wrapped her arms around me and she started to smile
When I said, 'Pretty geisha girl, would you be my bride?'
She said, 'Tok-San Itchy-Ban, So-Ling-Foo
Be honorable number one wife to you'

Tokyo, Oklahoma is smilin` tonight
Smell the cherry blossoms, hear the weddin` bells chime
Soon we`ll be livin` on Tulsa time
Tokyo, Oklahoma is smilin` tonight
