Lyrics: 

Gotta black breast Chinese eyes 
Got an English brain that's gonna make me wise 
Got a long story that I wanna tell 
To a rhythm that I know so well 
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give 
Baby I'm a mystery but you know I gotta live 
I tried another but she didn't want to know 
Aaaah --- no, no, no! 

Take a hold now if you can 
Take a lesson from a hard lovin' man 
I'm a long way from where I wanna go 
Guess I'll stay awhile I really love you so 
How's about another sip of all the wine you got 
Take a tip from me and give it here I'll drink the lot 
I'm not a winey, I'm a puttin' on a show 
Aaaah --- no, no, no! 

You really really grab me but I've gotta move 
Before they know I'm here and spread the news 
Maybe in a while when I've moved around 
I can find a way to pay you back your twenty pounds 
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give 
Baby I'm a mystery but you know I gotta live 
I tried another but she didn't want to know 
Aaaah --- no, no, no!
