"New Slow Boat To China" lyrics

Blaze Foley Lyrics

"New Slow Boat To China"

Long hard lonely, lonely night in Texas
Long hard lonely, lonely night for me
Woman on my mind way off in Georgia
Prettiest woman that I did see

Pretty face, a sweet sweet smile in Georgia
Sweet sweet kisses gonna melt my Tennis shoes
She wraps her arms around me back in Georgia
She drives me wild, she drove away my blues

She got to have the greenest eyes in Georgia
Makes me feel real good: she got eyes for me
She talks real purty like that ole' slow boat to China
Slow boat to China, slow down and wait from me

Long hot lonely, lonely night in Texas
Long hard lonely, lonely night for me
Woman on my mind way off in Georgia
Prettiest woman that I did ever see
