Lyrics

I'd like to get you

On a slow boat to China

All to myself all alone

Get you and keep you

In my arms evermore

Leave all your lovers

On that faraway shore

Out on the briny

With the moon so big and shiny

Melting your heart made of stone

Well I'd love to get you

On a slow boat to China

All to myself alone

Melting your heart made of stone

Well I'd like to get you

On a slow boat to China

All to myself alone

All to myself alone
