"And now from the Grand Ballroom"
"The S.S.?? proudly presents our boy singer: Jimmy Boofey"
"Take it away, Jim"
I'd love to get you
On a slow, boat to China
All to myself, alone
Get you and keep you
In my arms, ever more
Leave all your lovers
Weepin' on a far away shore (waiter!)
Out, on the briny
With the moon, big and shiny
Melting your heart, of stone
Honey, I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All by myself, alone
"Who's steering the boat?"
"Who's steering this boat?"
"Waiter!"
"May I get a drink around here, now uh...?"
"You ever been on a cruise?"
"Neither have I!"
"Can I see you later, You bet!"
"Excuse me, I have to go back to the bandstand now"
I'd, love to get you
On a slow, boat to China
All to myself, alone
A twist in the rudder
And a rip, in the sails
Driftin' and dreamin'
Honey, throw the compass over the rail
Out, on the ocean
Far from all, the commotion
Melting your heart, of stone
Honey, I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All by myself, alone
(I have to go now)
(Wait! Don't leave!)
Honey, I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All to myself, alone
"You know our last set is at two, I get off after that, what you doin'?"
"Would you like to take a stroll around the upper deck?"
"See you then"
"Maybe, oo-hoo"
"The S.S.?? proudly presents our boy singer: Jimmy Boofey"
"Take it away, Jim"
I'd love to get you
On a slow, boat to China
All to myself, alone
Get you and keep you
In my arms, ever more
Leave all your lovers
Weepin' on a far away shore (waiter!)
Out, on the briny
With the moon, big and shiny
Melting your heart, of stone
Honey, I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All by myself, alone
"Who's steering the boat?"
"Who's steering this boat?"
"Waiter!"
"May I get a drink around here, now uh...?"
"You ever been on a cruise?"
"Neither have I!"
"Can I see you later, You bet!"
"Excuse me, I have to go back to the bandstand now"
I'd, love to get you
On a slow, boat to China
All to myself, alone
A twist in the rudder
And a rip, in the sails
Driftin' and dreamin'
Honey, throw the compass over the rail
Out, on the ocean
Far from all, the commotion
Melting your heart, of stone
Honey, I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All by myself, alone
(I have to go now)
(Wait! Don't leave!)
Honey, I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All to myself, alone
"You know our last set is at two, I get off after that, what you doin'?"
"Would you like to take a stroll around the upper deck?"
"See you then"
"Maybe, oo-hoo"
