China Girl - Levon Helm

China girl, I met you on the sea sand

You touched me with your cool hand

Your perfume’s in the wind

China girl, your daddy tells you white lies

To keep you from my blue eyes

To know me is no sin

'Cause I won’t break you, China girl

If you take me into your world

It’s been my good fortune to find you, China girl

China girl

Stolen flowers, are sweetest in the mornin'

The eastern sun is dawnin'

Your silk against my skin

China girl, take me to your Jasmine place

Soothe me with your subtle grace

To know me is no sin

'Cause I won’t break you, China girl

If you take me into your world

It’s been my good fortune to find you, China girl

China girl
