| 作词 : Mathus | |
| Met the ghost of stephen foster at the hotel paradise | |
| This is what i told him as i gazed into his eyes： | |
| Rooms were made for carpets, | |
| Towers made for spires, | |
| Ships were made for cannonade fire off from inside them | |
| (chorus): gwine to run all night | |
| Gwine to run all day | |
| Camptown ladies never sang all the doo dah day no, no, no (end chorus) | |
| (chorus) | |
| Met the ghost of stephen foster at the hotel paradise | |
| This is what i told him as i gazed into his eyes: | |
| Ships were made for sinking, | |
| Whiskey made for drinking, | |
| If we were made of cellophane, we'd all get stinking drunk quite faster ha, ha, ha | |
