China

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Ah Miss Mary won't you please come home from China.

Bring a bottle of whisky and a tin cup for your

teeth.

Em Don't you sneak into the back door wearing some

disguise.

Em Knock on the front door in view of the Temperance

Guild.

Ah Miss Mary won't you please come home cause I miss ya.

Your old spinster sister don't always give good advice.

Look at her she's in love with that drunken bandy-legged

sheriff.

He'll unzip her pantsuit, but never leave his fat wife

CHORUS:

Ah Miss Mary won't you please come home from China.

A Come home from China.

D Come home from C China Am6.

REPEAT CHORUS

Now that fake old beatnik poet the volunteer fireman.

He don't care if you come, he don't like I do.

He's in love with his dog and all his volunteer fireman.

And he is afraid to let the end of his versus rhyme.

REPEAT CHORUS x2
