Story Behind The Song

BASICALLY, THIS SONG IS ABOUT THE EARLY PART OF MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY WIFE ("ASIAN GIRL") AND THE GOOD TIMES WE SPENT TOGETHER IN CHINATOWN, NYC.

Lyrics

SUNSHINE
THAT THE NEW DAY BRINGS
ON THE EAST SIDE
SHE'S GOT EVERYTHING I NEED-
TALKIN' 'BOUT MY ASIAN GIRL
WITH THE KNOWING SMILE
SHE GOT A SEXY WALK
IN THE LATEST HONG KONG STYLES-
CHORUS:
HANGIN' AROUND IN CHINATOWN
HANGIN' AROUND IN CHINATOWN

GOOD TIMES
WITH THE GIRL I LOVE
SHE'S ALL MINE
AND I CAN'T GET ENOUGH-
TALKIN' BOUT MY CHINA DOLL
SHE REALLY MAKES ME SMILE
SHE CALL ME WHITE BOY
AND WE LAUGH UNTIL WE CRY

CHROUS:

SUNDAY
WE'RE HANGIN' IN THE PARK
PLAYIN' GAMES
AND WE SIP TEA 'TIL IT'S DARK
PEOPLE DOIN' TAI CHI
SMOKIN' CIGARETTES
PLAYING MA JONG
PLACING BETS-

CHORUS:

I GET UP EARLY AND RIDE THE TRAIN
ALL THOSE FACES WITHOUT NAMES
SHE SITS REAL CLOSE AND TAKES MY HAND
LET'S ME KNOW SHE UNDERSTANDS
EVERYTIME I FEEL HER BREATH
I'M A MILLION MILES AWAY
CAUGHT UP IN THE SIGHTS AND SOUNDS
OF CHINATOWN
CHINATOWN
