Lyrics China Town - Van Halen

China Town

Headless body in a topless bar
Warring clans in lowered cars
A buck is still a buck in Shanghai, and a buck is all you earn
A great night for all concerned
Steel fingers play a deadly song
Whole lotta Shakespeare going on (and on and on)
It’s all happening downtown
You painted daughters of the Tong underground don’t mess around
Welcome to China Town
Well, you’re in our town, now
Welcome to China Town
Whoo!
Heroes aren’t born, they’re cornered
And this corner is where we write the story
(Two tribes warring)
Downtown after hours
The best to you each morning
Can’t survive and think to win
Drugged into sin
Next episode begins and begins and begins and begins
It’s all happening downtown
You painted daughters of the Tong underground don’t mess around
Whoo!
Welcome to China Town
Well, you’re in our town now
Welcome to China Town
It’s all happening downtown
Welcome to my town, my town, my town!
It’s all happening downtown
You painted daughters of the Tong underground don’t mess around
Welcome to China Town
Well, you’re in our town now
Welcome to China Town
Welcome to my town, my town, my town!
