Meet me on the banks of the Yangtze, Suzie Beneath the glare of the New-West Yard We'll watch the barges cart away the waste of another day We'll watch the barges cart away the waste of another day Meet me in the middle of Renmin Park Where the stone bridge meets the pond We'll watch the ducklings gobbling bread And the stealth of the approaching swan We'll watch the ducklings gobbling bread And the stealth of the approaching swan
Listen for the song of the propane seller Bouncing off the walls His morning cry a promise to you from me His morning song a blessing on you and me Meet me on the banks of the Yangtze, Suzie Beside the gate of the New-West Yard We'll watch the darkness leach away into the haze of another day We'll watch the darkness leach away into the haze of another day
