Cab Calloway - Limehouse Blues lyrics
[Cab Calloway - Limehouse Blues lyrics]
And those weird China blues never go away
Sad, mad blues
For all the while they seem to say
Oh, Limehouse kid oh, oh, Limehouse kid
Goin' the way that the rest of them did
Poor broken blossom and nobody's child
Haunting and taunting
You're just kind of wild
Oh, Limehouse blues
I've the real Limehouse blues
Can't seem to shake off
Those real China blues rings on your fingers
And tears for your crown that is the story
Of old Chinatown
Rings on your fingers
And tears for your crown that is the story
Of old Chinatown
Sad, mad blues
For all the while they seem to say
Oh, Limehouse kid oh, oh, Limehouse kid
Goin' the way that the rest of them did
Poor broken blossom and nobody's child
Haunting and taunting
You're just kind of wild
Oh, Limehouse blues
I've the real Limehouse blues
Can't seem to shake off
Those real China blues rings on your fingers
And tears for your crown that is the story
Of old Chinatown
Rings on your fingers
And tears for your crown that is the story
Of old Chinatown
