J. J. Cale - Shanghaid Lyrics
Hong kong, tokyo and singaporeNew york, boston and baltimoreTheyll take you right down where you dont want to goIf you talk too fast and you walk too slowShanghaid, shanghaidBeen locked up and shanghaidShanghaid, shanghaidBeen locked up and shanghaidI tried to live by the golden ruleDo unto others and theyll do unto youEvery time I get turned on I end up singing the same songShanghaid, shanghaidBeen locked up and shanghaidShanghaid, shanghaidBeen locked up and shanghaidI was crossing the desert on a sunny dayI met two women that passed my wayThey took me to a tent and they locked the door and all theyEver said was more, moreShanghaid, shanghaidBeen locked up and shanghaidShanghaid, shanghaidBeen locked up and shanghaidAnd Im standing right here with my usual slackPolice got me for talking backYoure out on the street, youd better watch your stepIf you talk too loud, now button your lipShanghaid, shanghaidBeen locked up and shanghaidShanghaid, shanghaidBeen locked up and shanghaidSitting in a bar in west berlinSipping on a glass thats low againTalking to a woman I thought I knewThe lights went out and I did tooShanghaid, shanghaidBeen locked up and shanghaidShanghaid, shanghaidBeen locked up and shanghaid
