joe jackson - chinatown lyrics
Loading...
chorus:
trying to find chinatown
trying to find chinatown
a hungry man
can hold out a long time
for some soul food
good food, whole food
i know i was that man
maybe sometimes hold out a little too long
i took a right
then i took a wrong turn
someone asked me
for a quarter
it did’t seem to fit
he didn’t look much like a chinaman
chorus
an old black man
pushed a shopping trolley
filled with tin cans
avoided his glance
i’m nervous and i’m lost
and i don’t see too many restaurants
a guy laid out
with a knife in his back
a cop came along
told him, move on
go home and sleep it off
i didn’t know if i should get involved
