David Bowie - China Girl Lyrics

Artist: David Bowie

Album: Let's Dance

  • Songwriters: David Jones, James Osterberg

Oh oh oh ohhhh, little China Girl
Oh oh oh ohhhh, little China Girl

I could escape this feeling, with my China Girl
I feel a wreck without my little China Girl
I hear her heart beating, loud as thunder
Saw they stars crashing

I'm a mess without, my little China Girl
Wake up in the morning where's my little China Girl
I hear her heart's beating, loud as thunder
I saw the stars crashing down

I feel a tragic like I'm Marlon Brando
When I look at my China Girl
And I could pretend that nothing really meant too much
When I look at my China Girl

I stumble into town, just like a sacred cow
Visions of swastikas in my head
Plans for everyone
It's in the whites of my eyes

My little China Girl you shouldn't mess with me
I'll ruin everything you are
Y'know, I'll give you television I'll give you eyes of blue
I'll give you a man who wants to rule the world

And when I get excited
My little China Girl says
"Oh baby just you shut your mouth"
She says, "Sh sh shhh"
She says, "Sh sh shhh"
She says, she says

And when I get excited my little China Girl says
"Oh baby just you shut your mouth"
And when I get excited my little China Girl says
"Oh baby just you shut your mouth"

She says, "Sh-sh-shhh"
She says

Oh oh oh ohhhh, little China Girl
Oh oh oh ohhhh, little China Girl
Oh oh oh ohhhh, little China Girl
Oh oh oh ohhhh, little China Girl
