I'd love to get you 
On a slow boat to China,
All to my self alone.
to get you to keep you 
in my arms evermore.
Leave all your lovers 
on the faraway shore.

Out on the briny
With the moon so big and shinny,
melting your heart of stone.
I'd like to get you
On a slow boat to China,
All to my self alone

Melting your heart of stone
I'd like to get you
On a slow boat to China,
All to my self alone

And darling, 
I'd like to get you
On a Slow boat to China
All to myself
All to myself
All to myself alone
