Tokay Lyrics
(Verse)
[OFFICERS]
Tokay!
[CAPTAIN LUTTE]
When we're thoroughly wined and dined
And the barracks are left behind
We come down to the town to find
Some relief from the daily grind
Love is kind
Love is blind
[OFFICERS]
Tokay!
[CAPTAIN LUTTE]
When the thoughts of a man incline
To the grapes of a sunlit vine
On the banks of the golden Rhine
Slowly ripening pure and fine
Sweet divine
Lovers' wine
Lift your voices till the rafters ring
Fill your glasses to the brim and sing
(Chorus)
{CAPTAIN LUTTE]
Tokay!
The golden sunshine of a summer day
Tokay!
Will bear the burden of your cares away
Here's to the love in you
The hate in you
Desire in you
[OFFICERS]
Wine of the sun that will waft you along
Lifting you high on the wings of a song
[CAPTAIN LUTTE]
Dreams in you

The flame in you
The fire in you
Tokay! Tokay!
[OFFICERS]
So while forgetfulness we borrow
Never minding what tomorrow
Has to say
[CAPTAIN LUTTE]
Tokay!
[ALL]
The only call we all obey
Tokay! Tokay! Tokay!
