Stateside Lyrics - Mel Tillis

Well the Japany's moon is bright tonight and Tokio is full of life 

Busy people everywhere but busy people just don't care 

I wanna go stateside oh Lord I wanna go stateside 

In and out the honky tonks but nothing's there I really want 

Sat awhile and look around get up and leave and walk the town 

I wanna go stateside oh Lord I wanna go stateside 

[ choir ] 

The giashy girls don't understand the lonely life of a service man 

When his heart is far away to a girl in the USA 

I wanna go stateside oh Lord I wanna go stateside 

I've heard say a man don't cry but I can't keep my blue eyes dry 

I've been away about two years I know I've cried a million tears 

I wanna go stateside oh Lord I wanna go stateside oh Lord I wanna go stateside
