Tokyo Rose by Riot V Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1977

They all called her Tokyo, the boys know her as Rose
The game is not a good one, it's the only one she knows
Jet black hair, lipstick glowin' red
Caviar and bourbon, goin' straight to her head

When you lay your money down, she'll play her games with you
Don't gamble with you heart, she'll take it right from you
She'll take you for a ride, with some wine and romance
Gonna wind up face flat down, not a cent in your pants

Tokyo Rose, Tokyo Rose, Tokyo Rose

Back street crawler, is what she'll always be
I can't live without her love, it's the cure for me
Day after day, I was warned of the danger
A little bit of love, give it away to strangers

Tokyo Rose, Tokyo Rose, Tokyo Rose

Tokyo, Tokyo Rose
Tokyo, I wanna know, about you, Tokyo
I wanna know, about you, Tokyo
Tokyo Rose, Tokyo
Tokyo Rose, Tokyo
Mmmm, you sure are a strange one
Hey, hey Tokyo
Oh, never get too close
Tokyo, hey Rose
