[00:12.44] Let's take a slow boat to China. Leave from South Carolina
[00:19.63] Let's take our time and go the long way
[00:25.65] On a junk boat to Thailand with your hand in mine hand
[00:31.97] I sure hope we got something to say
[00:37.94] Well, this old boat's go no sail so won't you please hold our mail-
[00:44.31] For awhile
[00:50.43] Thanks anyway pal but the Suez Canal
[00:56.39] Ain't our style
[01:02.72] Let's take a slow boat to China and maybe we'll find a
[01:09.39] New way to play those same old games
[01:15.26] The stars just might show us and the captain will know us
[01:21.54] Shake our hands and call us by our first names
[01:27.81] We'll send a postcard to Grandpa of a vase or rickshaw
[01:33.57] He don't care
[01:39.68] We'll buy Mom a kimono or maybe we'll just phone her
[01:46.16] When we're there
[02:17.34] We'll drink sake at night beneath the soft harbor lights
[02:23.16] On the bay
[02:29.44] We'll build house on the hill next to Shangri-Li Bill
[02:35.34] And we'll stay
[02:41.13] Let's take that slow boat to China (Let's go)
[02:45.14] Slow boat to China (Real Slow)
[02:48.12] Slow boat to China (Let's go)
[02:51.10] Slow boat to China (Real Slow)
[02:54.18] Let's go Real Slow
[03:00.40] Let's go Real Slow
[03:06.64] Let's go Real Slow
[03:12.55] Let's take that slow boat to China (Let's go)
[03:15.66] Slow boat to China (Real Slow)
[03:19.41] Slow boat to China (Let's go)
