Uncle B.S.-1941

Uncle B.S., where were you December 7th, 1941? December 7th, 1941 Layin' on a beach on a small island Off the coast of "How Are Ya?" Tryin' to get some sun Tryin' to get some well-deserved R&R Couldn't get no sleep, though 'Cause some Japanese fellow was behind me Tryin' to get his plane started Had this look in his eye Like he didn't have much to live for I asked him if he'd ever accepted Christ As his personal savior He said, no, but he was headed to Honolulu Had a little one-seater airplane I begged a ride off of him It was a tight squeeze But Japanese folks just fit in your lap We get headed over there He's talkin' kamikaze, somethin' I said, hey, don't be drinkin' and flyin' Hang with me, ma'am, to get better Hang with me
