AChina girl, I met you on the F#msea sand.
You touched me with yourD cool hand.
Your perfume's in theA wind.
AChina girl, your daddy tells youF#m white lies
To keep you from my bDlue eyes.
To know me is no Asin.
CHORUS:
And F#mI won't break you, China Agirl,
If you tDake me into your Aworld.
F#mIt's been my good fortuneD to find you,
AChina girl.
Stolen flowers are sweetest in the mornin'.
The Eastern sun is dawnin'.
Your silk's against my skin.
China girl, take me to your jasmine place.
Cool me with your subtle grace.
To know me is no sin.
CHORUS
And I won't break you, China girl,
If you take me into your world.
It's been my good fortune to find you,
China girl.
