Van Halen
China Town (Live)
[Verse 1]
Headless body in a topless bar
Warring clans in lowered cars
A buck is still a buck in Shanghai, and a buck is all you earn
A great night for all concerned
Steel fingers play a deadly song
Whole lotta Shakespeare going on (and on and on)
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s all happening downtown
You painted daughters of the Tong underground don’t mess around
[Chorus]
Welcome to China Town
Well, you're in our town, now
Welcome to China Town
Whoo!
[Verse 2]
Heroes aren't born, they're cornered
This corner's where we write the story
(Two tribes warring)
Downtown after hours
The best to you each morning
Can't survive and think to win
Drugged into sin
Next episode begins and begins and begins and begins
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s all happening downtown
You painted daughters of the Tong underground don’t mess around
Whoo!
[Chorus]
Welcome to China Town
Well, you're in our town, now
Welcome to China Town
[Bridge]
It’s all happening downtown
Welcome to my town, my town, my town!
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s all happening downtown
You painted daughters of the Tong underground don’t mess around
[Chorus]
Welcome to China Town
Well, you're in our town now
Welcome to China Town
Welcome to my town, my town, my town!
