Lyrics: Gotta black breast Chinese eyes Got an English brain that's gonna make me wise Got a long story that I wanna tell To a rhythm that I know so well Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give Baby I'm a mystery but you know I gotta live I tried another but she didn't want to know Aaaah --- no, no, no! Take a hold now if you can Take a lesson from a hard lovin' man I'm a long way from where I wanna go Guess I'll stay awhile I really love you so How's about another sip of all the wine you got Take a tip from me and give it here I'll drink the lot I'm not a winey, I'm a puttin' on a show Aaaah --- no, no, no! You really really grab me but I've gotta move Before they know I'm here and spread the news Maybe in a while when I've moved around I can find a way to pay you back your twenty pounds Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give Baby I'm a mystery but you know I gotta live I tried another but she didn't want to know Aaaah --- no, no, no!
