King Kong In Hong Kong Lyrics & Chords By Paddy Kelly

LyricsView Chords

I flew to hong kong for some business in june
caught the train from
the airport, taking me
to kowloon
checked in my hotel and went up to my room
the cleaners told me
"come back after noon"
so I walked out and joined the mass on the street
noticed someone begging in the corner bared feet
bought him a sandwich with some coffee and cream
smiling this is what he said to me:
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
went to the harbour and
got myself on a boat
the waves were bursting up and down but somehow
we'd float
I joined a group of tourists lined up like ducks
taking pictures of a bouddha by the docks
me and my band we had a
gig that night
we were jamming during soundcheck trying to get
this song right
a sold out venue filled
with asians and whites
lights went off that when
I sang into the mic
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
I got back on the train, bye bye babe, bye bye babe now
left hong kong not the same, I learned from the wise man
I got back on the plane, bye bye babe, bye bye babe now
left hong kong not the same, I learned from the wise man don't buy into fame
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
you make me feel like king kong in hong kong
