There is no verse   To this song   Cause I don't wanna wait    A minute too long   To tell you      I'd love to get you    On a slow boat to China   All to myself alone   Get you and keep you    In my arms evermore   And leave all your lovers   cryin' on a far away shore      Out on the Briny   With a moon    Big and shiny   Melting your heart of stone   I'd love to get you    On a slow boat to China   All to myself alone      Out on the Briny   With a moon    Big, fat and shiny   Melting, melting, melting    Your heart of stone   Listen to me, baby      I'd love to get you   on a small little junk to China   Once again now   I'd love to get you    On a slow boat to China   All to myself alone
