When the town is fast asleep, and it's mid-night in the sky That's the time the festive chink starts to wink his other eye Starts to wink his dreamy eye, lazily you'll hear him sigh
Strangers taking in the sights, pig-tails flying here and there See that broken wall street sport, still thinks he's a millionaire Still thinks he's a millionaire, pipe dreams banish every care
Chinatown, my Chinatown Where the lights are low Hearts that know no other land Drifting to and fro Dreamy dreamy Chinatown Almond eyes of brown Hearts seems light and life seems bright In dreamy Chinatown
