Hong Kong Blues (2004 Mix)

Hong Kong Blues (2004 Mix) - George Harrison

It's a story of a very unfortunate coloured man

Who got arrested down in old Hong Kong

He got twenty years

Privilege taken away from him

When he kicked old Buddha's gong

And now he's poppin' the

Piano just to raise the price

Of a ticket to the land of the free

Well he says his home's

In 'Frisco where they send the rice

But it's really in Tennessee

That's why he says:

I need someone to love me

I need somebody to carry

Me home to San Francisco

And bury my body there

I need someone to lend me

A fifty dollar bill and then

I'll leave Hong Kong behind me

For happiness once again

Won't somebody believe

I've a yen to see that Bay again

Every time I try to leave

Sweet o***m won't let me fly away

I need someone to love me

Need somebody to carry

Me home to San Francisco

And bury my body there

That's the story of a very

Unfortunate coloured man

Who got arrested down in old Hong Kong

He got twenty years

Privilege taken away from him

When he kicked old Buddha's gong
