English translation
There ain't no TVs! There ain't no radios!
The jalopies don't go that fast!
No pianos! No bars!
The cops come round 'n round everyday
Wake up in the morn', take the cows out
For a lil' walk for about two hours
No phones! No gas!
The bus comes here once dailyI've had enough of this village
I've had enough of this village
So I'm goin' down to Tokyo and when I get down to Tokyo
With all my savings I'll be rearing a cow thereThere ain't no guitars! There ain't no stereos!
Never seen that person ever before in my life!
No diners! No gatherings!
The only young 'un around is me!
With Granny and Gramps
We pray to the heavens, clutching beads
No drugstores! No movies!
All we sometimes get is picture shows!I've had enough of this village
I've had enough of this village
So I'm goin' down to Tokyo and when I get down to Tokyo
With all my savings I'll drive a horse cart 'roundThere ain't no discos! There's nothin' to peep on!
What the heck is a laser disc?
Yea we have karaoke, but
Never knew you need a machine to do it!
No newspapers! No magazines!
We've only got a noticeboard!
Traffic lights? Are you kiddin' me?
In my village there ain't no electricity!I've had enough of this village
I've had enough of this village
So I'm goin' down to Tokyo and when I get down to Tokyo
With all my savings I'll own a mountain in GinzaI've had enough of this village
I've had enough of this village
So I'm goin' down to Tokyo and when I get down to Tokyo
With all my savings I'll be rearing a cow there
