Laugh a bit, drink a bit, love a bit more
You can supply our need
Think a bit, chaff a bit, what's it all for?
That's your Eurasian creed
Sailors with sentimental hearts
Who love and sail away
When the dawn is grey
Look at you and say
Half-caste woman, living a life apart
Where did your story begin?
Half-caste woman, have you a secret heart
Waiting for someone to win?
Were you born of some queer magic?
In your shimmering gown
Is there something strange and tragic
Deep, deep down?
Half-caste woman, what are your slanting eyes
Hoping and waiting to see?
Scanning the far horizon
Wondering what the end will be
Down along the river, the sky is a-quiver
For dawn is beginning to break
Hear the sirens wailing, some big ship is sailing
And losing your dreams in its wake
Why should you remember the things that are past?
Moments so swiftly gone
Why worry, for the Lord knows
Life goes on?
Go to bed at daylight, try to sleep in vain
Get up in the evening, work begins again
Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor, rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief
Questioning the same refrain
Half-caste woman, living a life apart
Where did your story begin?
Half-caste woman, have you a secret heart
Waiting for someone to win?
Were you born of some queer magic?
In your shimmering gown
Is there something strange and tragic
Deep, deep down?
Half-caste woman, what are your slanting eyes
Waiting and hoping to see?
Scanning the far horizon
Wondering what the end will be
