China, china, on the sea shore China, china, on the dance floor China, china, I must have seen your face before
I've been to cairo and I've been to khartoum I've seen them places from my rented room I've been to paris and I've been to marseille But that was nothing till I got to cathay
I've been to new york and I've been to l.a. I've been to delhi and I've been to bombay I've been to venice and I've been to rome But now it's peking that I think of as home
China, china, on the sea shore China, china, on the dance floor China, china, there's no finer place on earth
