Electric Light Orchestra - Chinatown lyrics

Bury a jar of shao-sing When the girl is born Surely you know the wine will age Till shes fully grown Dont fly into the night Soon enough the world will end While the lantern is right Chorus I could find a good time girl in chinatown Chinatown Dancing in my shoes See the eastern ladies walking chinatown Chinatown Chain me down Chinatown Maybe ill drink your jasmine tea Then ill hurry home Surely you know the likes of me Should be left alone Why they like a me for Soon enough the world will end If i answer the door Chorus Look at the tall pagoda through Through your window pane Watching it by your dragon night On a cocoa day Youll discover the white Orchids in my humble moon While the lantern is right Chorus
