@ceciletancinco1 You're welcome. But I don't think this was one of the songs on the soundtrack of "Flower Drum Song", if we're talking about the same musical.

Fantastic to hear this again - it must be about 45 years since I first heard it, as an eight year old listening to Radio Luxembourg in bed. The lyrics have stayed in my mind all these years, though I did not know the title of the song, just one or two lines from it. Tonight I decided to search the internet for  "Japanese Boy" and in a roundabout fashion it brought me here. Thanks so much for making it available - it brought back such happy childhood memories.
