I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China,
All to myself, alone.

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 shiny,
Melting your heart of stone.

I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China,
All to myself, alone.

~~~~♫♫♫ ~~~~
Melting your heart of stone.

I'd love to get you
On a slow, slow boat to China,
All to myself, alone.
