Mah-Jong (Remastered Version) - Chicago (芝加哥) Third floor walk-up
One block east of chinatown
She walked by my window
While the rain is pouring down
Looking in she sees The easy money lying everywhere
And it's clear she don't approve And it's clear she don't approve Through a cloud of smoke I shoot a little smile over there And I know what she's thinking She know mah-jong Mah-jong she don't play
She know mah-jong Waste your life away Don't you throw it away She know mah-jong Mah-jong she don't play
But she loves the player
With the dark eyes burning
I am opening the wall
Can there be no other chance I feel my fortune's turning
And I wish for nothing else at all
Than to run to her
Looking up I see her signal With her fingers through her hair Telling me the hands are clean
Understanding well I turn a dragon tail into a pair And the game is over She know mah-jong Mah-jong she don't play She don't play She know mah-jong Waste your life away Don't you throw it away She know mah-jong Mah-jong she don't play
Though I don't obey her Still she loves the player She know mah-jong Mah-jong she don't play
She know mah-jong Waste your life away Don't you throw it away She know mah-jong Mah-jong she don't play
Though I don't obey her
Still she loves the player
Three floors up from where the lanterns Light the parlors on the street There awaits another world There awaits another world And though there are not many things Upon which she and I agree
We enjoy the difference She know mah-jong Mah-jong she don't play Don't you play She know mah-jong Waste your life away
Don't you throw it away She know mah-jong Mah-jong she don't play
