Artist/Band: Hank Locklin
Lyrics for Song: Geisha Girl (vs. 1)
Lyrics for Album: RCA Country Legends [RCA] [2003]



(Lawton Williams)



Have you ever heard a love song

That you didn't understand?

Well, you've met her in a teahouse

On the island of Japan



And have you ever traveled

Over a many thousand miles

To see a pretty geisha girl

Dressed in oriental style?



They read it in the tea leaves

And it's written in the sand

I found love by the heartful

In the foreign, distant land.



Tell the homefolks that I'm happy

With someone that's true I know

I love a pretty geisha girl

Where the ocean breezes blow.



--- Instrumental ---



I have stood and watched the sunrise

From the waters of the sea

And wondered how much beauty

In this whole world can there be.



My dreams are all worth dreaming

And it makes my life worth while

To see my pretty geisha girl

Dressed in oriental style.



They read it in the tea leaves

And it's written in the sand

I found love by the heartful

In the foreign, distant land.



Tell the homefolks that I'm happy

With someone that's true I know

I love a pretty geisha girl

Where the ocean breezes blow.
