China Sea lyrics

[Verse 1]
Seems like you're always dreaming
Your mind is wandering far away
Thinking 'bout your boy in China
A junkie on the China Sea

[Chorus]
Oh your mother told me so
You're gonna be all right

[Verse 2]
Don't let your heart get broken
You know how much he loved to sail
Remember how you heard that steamer whistle blowing
Made him cry all day

[Chorus]
Oh mama, she done told me so
You're gonna be all right

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Outro]
I can hear that whistle
I can hear it blowing
I can hear that whistle
I can hear it blowing
I can hear that whistle
I can hear it blowing
I can hear that whistle
I can hear it blowing
