    Fellows, if you're arn
    I will spin a yarn
    That was told to me by Able Seaman Jones.
    Once he had the blues
    So he took a cruise
    Far away from night-clubs and from saxophones.
    He said, "Yo Ho, I've made a certain port
    And when you talk about real he-man sport":

    Hot ginger and dynamite
    There's nothing but that at night
    Back in Nagasaki
    Where the fellers chew tobaccy
    And the women wicky-wacky
    Woo.
    The way they can entertain
    Would hurry a hurricane
    Back in Nagasaki
    Where the fellers chew tobaccy
    And the women wicky wacky
    Woo.

    In Fujiama
    You get a mama
    Then your troubles increase.
    In some pagoda
    She orders soda
    Earth-shake milk-shakes, ten cents a piece.
    They kissy and huggy nice
    Oh, By Jingo! I'ts worth the price.
    Back in Nagasaki
    Where the fellers chew tobaccy
    And the women wicky-wacky
    Woo.

    Now when the day is warm
    You can keep in form
    With a bowl of rice beneath a parasol.
    Every gentle man
    Has to use a fan
    And they only use suspenders in the fall.
    That's where the girls don't think of rings and furs.
    Gosh, it's the nicest place that ever weres.

    They give you a carriage free
    The horse is a Japanee
    Back in Nagasaki
    Where the fellers chew tobaccy
    And the women wicky-wacky
    Woo.
    They sit you upon the floor
    No wonder your pants get sore
    Back in Nagasaki
    Where the fellers chew tobaccy
    And the women wicky-wacky
    Woo.

    With Sweet Kimoner
    I pulled a boner
    I kept it up at high speed.
    I got rhumatics
    And then psyatics
    Halatosisis, that's guarenteed.
    You just have to act your age
    Or wind up inside a cage
    Back in Nagasaki
    Where the fellers chew tobaccy
    And the women wicky-wacky
    Woo.

    With an ice-cream cone and a bottle of tea
    You can rest all day by the hickory tree
    But when night comes round, oh gosh oh gee,
    Mother, mother, mother, pin a rose on me.

    Those pretty mamas
    In pink pyjamas
    They try to give you a kiss
    Those torid teases
    In B.V.D.ses
    Heaven help a sailor on a night like this!
    Not too gentle and not too rough
    But you've got to tell them when you've had enough
    Back in Nagasaki
    Where the fellers chew tobaccy
    And the women wicky-wacky
    Woo.
