China Belle

There's a little lady living down in old Beijing

She's got everything you need, well you know what I mean

No it ain't what you're thinking, she ain't love for sale, oh no

She'll get you jumping just for fun but there's a sting in her tale

She's a lover she's a fighter she's a red hot bit

You take her as you find her but you never can quit

She's a pretty little lady called China Belle

She's a little bit of heaven and a whole lot of hell

She's got a bad reputation but she won't say no

You're gonna need her sweet loving when you go go go

She got your diamond on her finger, you can see it glisten

She's got plenty conversation, don't talk just listen

She could be flat bed faking, but you never can tell

Got the the body of an angel but you know darn well

She's a pretty little lady called China Belle

She's a little bit of heaven and a whole lot of hell

I was standing at the station on the neck of Siam

I met a man from Abu Dhabi said you know who I am

They call me hard-nosed Harry who could never get hooked

But I fell in love with trouble and with just one look

She give you dirty loving honey make you feel real swell

But if you say you wanna stay she ain't that kind of gal

I said you're talking about a lady that I know darn well

She's a little bit of heaven and a

Whole lot of hell

She'll take you you Nee-How walking to a Chinese ball

You'll be singing and a-dancing underneath the great wall

But when you're strolling in the rain through Tianenman Square

You turn around to look for China and she ain't nowhere

She's a dangerous habit she's a red hot hit

You could get a better rabbit but you just can't quit

She's a pretty little lady called China Belle

She's a pretty little lady called China Belle

She's a little bit of heaven and a

Whole lot of hell

Take me to China

She's a little bit of heaven and a whole lot of hell
