[Verse 1]

In a time, in a place

In a world they forgot

Lives the heart of me

A part that just won't die

Just a boy, not a man

Sent to war in a land

They said we'd fight for their freedom

But I felt like a hired hand

[Pre-Chorus]

Sometimes I have to find my way

Sometimes I have to get away

[Chorus]

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road

[Verse 2]

Working hard, for a pass

Got the night, make it last

It was a night to remember

All my life, I would never forget

In a bar, breathing smoke

Snorting whiskey, drinking coke

It was a time when no one would die

And there wasn't a care

[Pre-Chorus]

Sometimes I wish it was that way

'Cause sometimes I have to get away

[Chorus]

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road, oh yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]

This guy turns me around, and he's pointing up the stairs

I found myself in her doorway, but there wasn't anybody there

She walked in the room with nothing on but a red light, aw-huh

And with a smile she got so close to me, she whispered something 'bout midnight

I didn't understand a word she said, but it felt so good

She knew that I didn't have any money, but baby I knew she would

[Chorus]

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road
