robbie robertson - shanghai blues lyrics
let’s go out for a ride to the old sin city
where the king of the underworld ruled without any pity
he wore a silk gown, dried monkey heads on the back
a face carved outta stone and a heart painted black
he believed in omens and was very superst-tious
if anyone ever crossed him, his revenge would be vicious
he got blood on his hands
he got blood on his shoes
cuts his enemies down
with the shanghai blues
a chinese godfather, an offer you can’t refuse
or you might disappear with the shanghai blues
when he joined the green gang
he was young, hungry and tough
took over that crime dynasty
had all the right stuff
he kept many concubines
and he had many wives
hooked up with chiang kai-shek
that was how he survived
he ran the opium trade with gambling and prost-tution
then escaped to hong kong before mao’s revolution
he got blood on his hands
he got blood on his shoes
cuts his enemies down
with the shanghai blues
the chinese godfather, an offer you can’t refuse
or you might disappear with the shanghai blues
player
when someone betrayed him
he would send them a coffin
or maybe a knife in the back
which happened quite often
he got blood on his hands
he got blood on his shoes
cuts his enemies down
with the shanghai blues
a chinese godfather, an offer you can’t refuse
or you might disappear with the shanghai blues, huh
shanghai blues
the shanghai blues, yeah
