Lyrics:
Gotta black breast Chinese eyes
Got an English brain that’s gonna make me wise
Got a long story that I wanna tell
To a rhythm that I know so well
Really got a lot of lovin’ that I wanna give
Baby I’m a mystery but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn’t want to know
Aaaah — no, no, no!
Take a hold now if you can
Take a lesson from a hard lovin’ man
I’m a long way from where I wanna go
Guess I’ll stay awhile I really love you so
How’s about another sip of all the wine you got
Take a tip from me and give it here I’ll drink the lot
I’m not a winey, I’m a puttin’ on a show
Aaaah — no, no, no!
You really really grab me but I’ve gotta move
Before they know I’m here and spread the news
Maybe in a while when I’ve moved around
I can find a way to pay you back your twenty pounds
Really got a lot of lovin’ that I wanna give
Baby I’m a mystery but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn’t want to know
Aaaah — no, no, no!
