Hong Kong Blues (Remastered 2004)
作曲 : Hoagy Carmichael
It's a story of a very unfortunate coloured man
Who got arrested down in old Hong Kong
He got twenty years
Privilege taken away from him
When he kicked old Buddha's gong
And now he's poppin' the
Piano just to raise the price
Of a ticket to the land of the free
Well he says his home's
In 'Frisco where they send the rice
But it's really in Tennessee
That's why he says:
I need someone to love me
I need somebody to carry
Me home to San Francisco
And bury my body there
I need someone to lend me
A fifty dollar bill and then
I'll leave Hong Kong behind me
For happiness once again
Won't somebody believe
I've a yen to see that Bay again
Every time I try to leave
I need someone to love me
Sweet opium won't let me fly away
Need somebody to carry
Me home to San Francisco
And bury my body there
That's the story of a very
Unfortunate coloured man
Who got arrested down in old Hong Kong
He got twenty years
Privilege taken away from him
When he kicked old Buddha's gong
