Chummy little Chinese ladies, drinking at those dinky bars
Balmy breezes rom the sea, blossoms in the cherry tree
Everything is so familiar, but where, where is she
I've covered every little highway and I've been climbing every hill
I've been looking high and I've been looking low looking for my Shanghai Lil
The stars that hang high over Shanghai bring back the memory of a thrill
I've been looking high and I've been looking low looking for my Shanghai Lil
I learned to love her the little devil was just a butterfly
But you'd discover something on the level shining in her eye
I've been trying to forget her but what's the use, I never will
I'll be looking high and I'll be looking low till I find my Shanghai Lil
Anxiously I cast an eye on each street throughout Shanghai
Plenty Oriental ladies beckon as they pass me by
But my mind just can't erase one outstanding lovely face
So, until the day I find out, I'll never leave this place
