Hong Kong Blues - Ramblin' Jack Elliott[00:00:00]

This is the story of a very unfortunate coloured man[00:00:03]

Who got arrested down in old Hong Kong[00:00:08]

He got twenty years privilege[00:00:14]

Taken away from him[00:00:15]

When he kicked old buddha's gong[00:00:18]

And now he's popping the piano[00:00:23]

Just to raise the price[00:00:25]

Of a ticket to the land of the free[00:00:27]

Well he says his home's in Frisco[00:00:32]

Where they send the rice[00:00:34]

But it's really in Tennessee[00:00:36]

That's what he says[00:00:41]

I need someone to love me[00:00:45]

Need somebody to carry me home to San Francisco[00:00:50]

And bury my body there[00:00:57]

I need someone to lend me[00:01:04]

A fifty dollar bill and then[00:01:08]

I'll leave Hong Kong far behind me[00:01:11]

For happiness once again[00:01:17]

Won't someone believe[00:01:23]

I've a yen to see that bay again[00:01:27]

But it's time I try to leave[00:01:32]

Sweet opium won't let me fly away[00:01:36]

I need someone to love me[00:01:40]

Need somebody to carry me home to San Francisco[00:01:45]

And bury my body there[00:01:51]
