(Kinky Friedman)



Well, a long time ago in old Tokyo

By the softly flowing stream

I left her there with the stars in her hair

On the other side of a dream.

Well, I traveled through with a heart full of blue

Never quite making my way

Till I come upon a strawberry blonde

Living in Pittsburgh, P.A.



Ah, bananas and rice they used to be nice

On the other side of a dream.

Oh, bananas and rice they used to be nice

But now it's bananas an cream.



I stood hypnotized, I stared in her eyes,

She smiled and I suddenly knew

If I made her my bride then the other side

0f my dream would finally come true.



Ah, bananas and rice they used to be nice

On the other side of a dream.

Oh, oh, bananas and rice they used to be nice

But now it's bananas and cream.

Bananas and rice used to be nice

On the other side of a dream.

Bananas and rice ...
