China girl, I met you on the sea sand.
|
You touched me with your cool hand.
|
Your perfume's in the wind.
|
|
China girl, your daddy tells you white lies
|
To keep you from by blue eyes.
|
To know me is no sin.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
And I won't break you, China girl,
|
If you take me into your world.
|
It's been my good fortune to find you,
|
China girl.
|
|
Stolen flowers are sweetest in the mornin'.
|
The Eastern sun is dawnin'.
|
Your silk's against my skin.
|
|
China girl, take me to your jasmine place.
|
Cool me with your subtle grace.
|
To know me is no sin.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
And I won't break you, China girl,
|
If you take me into your world.
|
It's been my good fortune to find you,
|
China girl.
