I'd love to get you on a slow boat to China
All to myself alone
To get you and keep you in my arms evermore
Leavin' all your lovelies weepin' on a faraway shore
Out on the briny with-with the moon big and shiny
Melting your heart of stone
I'd love to get you on a slow boat to China
All to myself alone
(I'd like to get you) On a slow boat to China
All to myself alone
Get you and keep you in my arms evermore
Leavin' all your lovelies weepin' on a faraway shore
Out on the briny with the moon big and shiny
Melting your heart of stone
(Too fast, please, make it go slow!)
I'd love to get you on a slow boat to China
All to myself alone
