Spent some time feelin' inferiorstanding in front of
my mirrorCombed my hair in a thousand waysbut I came
out looking just the sameDaddy said, "Son, you
better see the worldI wouldn't blame you if you
wanted to leaveBut remember one thing don't lose your
headto a woman that'll spend your bread"So I
got outParis was a place you could hide awayif
you felt you didn't fit inFrench police wouldn't
give me no peaceThey claimed I was a nasty personDown along the Left Bank minding my ownWas knocked down
by a human stampedeGot arrested for inciting a peacful
riotwhen all I wanted was a cup of teaI was
accusedI moved onDown in Rome I wasn't
getting enoughof the things that keeps a young man
aliveMy body stunk but I kept my funkat a time when
I was right out of luckGetting desperate indeed I wasLooking like a tourist attractionOh my dear I better get
out of here'for the Vatican don't give no
sanctionI wasn't ready for that, no noI
moved right out east yeah!On the Peking ferry I was
feeling merrysailing on my way back hereI fell in
love with a slit eyed ladyby the light of an eastern
moonShangai Lil never used the pillShe claimed that
it just ain't naturalShe took me up on deck and bit
my neckOh people I was glad I found herOh yeah I was
glad I found herI firmly believe that I didn't
need anyone but meI sincerely thought I was so completeLook how wrong you can beThe women I've known
I wouldn't let tie my shoeThey wouldn't give you
the time of dayBut the slit eyed lady knocked me off my
feetGod I was glad I found herAnd if they had the
words I could tell to youto help you on the way down the
roadI couldn't quote you no Dickens, Shelley or
Keats'cause it's all been said beforeMake
the best out of the bad just laugh it offYou didn't
have to come here anywaySo remember, every picture tells a
story don't it
