On A Slow Boat To China

To spike jones and the city slickers and darlene vare
-- spoken:
«and now from the grand ballroom»
«the s.s.? ?? ? proudly presents our boy singer: jimmy boofey»
«take it away jim»
Id love to get you
On a slow boat to china
All to myself alone
Get you and keep you
In my arms ever more
Leave all your lovers
Weepin on a far away shore (waiter!)
Out on the briny
With the moon big and shiny
Melting your heart of stone
Honey Id love to get you
On a slow boat to china
All by myself alone
-- spoken:
«whos steering the boat? ««whos steering this boat? ««waiter!»
«may I get a drink around here, now uh??? ««you ever been on a cruise? ««neither have i!»
(instrumental)
«…isnt that a good one? ««yes, can I see you later, you bet!»
«excuse me, I have to go back to the bandstand now»
Id love to get you
On a slow boat to china
All to myself alone
A twist in the rudder
And a rip in the sails
Driftin and dreamin
Honey throw the compass over the rail
Out on the ocean
Far from all the commotion
Melting your heart of stone
Honey Id love to get you
On a slow boat to china
All by myself alone
(I have to go now)
(wait! dont leave!)
Honey Id love to get you
On a slow boat to china
All to myself alone
-- spoken:
«you know our last set is at two»
«i get off after that»
«what you doin? ««would you like to take a stroll around the upper deck? ««see you then»
«maybe, oo-hoo»
