China Town Lyrics

Chorus
Me and my baby got the whole thing down
From the Hudson River down to China Town
Laid up in bed 'til the sun goes down
Me and my baby got the whole thing down

V1
Whoa, I've got a shotgun leanin' on a kitchen chair
Think I might get drunk and shoot it in the air
Drive up to the hills and get lost somewhere
One more last shot and baby I'll be there

Chorus
Me and my baby got the whole thing down
From the Hudson River down to China Town
Laid up in bed 'til the sun goes down
Me and my baby got the whole thing down

V2
Oh, I'm gonna make me some money downtown tonight
Chase all them pretty girls through the neon lights
Stumble back to bed right about daylight
But in the back of my mind something don't feel right. Oh!

Chorus
Me and my baby got the whole thing down
From the Hudson River down to China Town
Laid up in bed 'til the sun goes down
Me and my baby got the whole thing down

Bridge

Whoa, sweet Virginia
I've been gone away too long. Whoa Lord.
Sweet old Dominion
I don't think I'm ever coming home.

V3
There's a police chopper come down the hill
If they don't find my grain, they're gonna find my still. Oh Lord!
Looks like I'm gonna have a lot of time to kill
Tell my sweet Louise that my love was real. Oh Lord!

Chorus (x2)
Oh! Me and my baby got the whole thing down
From the Hudson River down to China Town

Laid up in bed 'til the sun goes down
Me and my baby got the whole thing down
