On A Slow Boat To China

Emile Ford, The Checkmates

Album What Do You Want To Make Those Eyes At Me For?

I`d like to get you
On a slow boat to China
All to myself alone
To get you and
keep you in my arms evermore
Leave all your lovers
Weeping on the faraway shore
Out on the briny
With the moon big and shinny
Melting your heart of stone
Darling I`d love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All to myself alone
