(sung to the tune of 'I'm going to leave old Texas now')
I'm going to leave
Okinawa now
They've got no use
For my trading scow
The British now
They rule the waves
And the people there
Are all so strange
I'll take my boat
I'll take my scow
And look real hard
For a new life now
I'll bid goodbye
To the ports where I stay
And go to Japan
To live like Chomei
God loves you!
Sincerely,
David S. Annderson
