Chinatown lyrics
Bury a jar of shaosing
When the girl is born
Surely you know the wine will age
Till she's fully grown
Don't fly into the night
Soon enough the world will end
While the lantern is right
I could find a good time girl in Chinatown, Chinatown
Dancing in my shoes
See the eastern ladies walk in Chinatown
Chinatown, chain me down, Chinatown
Maybe, I'll drink your jasmine tea
Then I'll hurry home
Surely you know the likes of me
Should be left alone
Why they like me for?
Soon enough the world will end
If I answer the door
I could find a good time girl in Chinatown, Chinatown
Dancing in my shoes
See the eastern ladies walk in Chinatown
Chinatown, chain me down, Chinatown
Look at the tall pagoda through
Through your window pane
Watching it by your dragon night
On a cocoa day
You'll discover the white
Orchids in my humble moon
While the lantern is right
I could find a good time girl in Chinatown, Chinatown
Dancing in my shoes
See the eastern ladies walk in Chinatown
Chinatown, chain me down, Chinatown
