Mah-Jong (Album Version) - Chicago (芝加哥)

A third floor walk up

One block east of Chinatown

She walked by my window

While the rain is pouring down

Looking in she sees the easy money life everywhere

And it's clear she don't approve

And it's clear she don't approve

Through a cloud of smoke I shoot a little smile

Over there

And I no wonder she's thinking

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play

She don't mah jong wait she don't let me wait

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play

But she loves to play

With the dark eyes burning

I am opening the wall

Can there be no other chance

I feel my fortune's turning

And I wish for nothing else at all

Looking up I see her signal with her fingers through

Her hair

Telling me the hands are clean

On the standing where

I turn a dragon tail into a pair

And the game is over

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play

She don't mah jong wait she don't let me wait

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play

Though I don't obey her

Still she loves to play her

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play

She don't mah jong wait she don't let me wait

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play

Though I don't obey her

Still she loves to play her

A tree blows up

From where the lanterns light the parlors on the street

Better not wage another her

And though there are not many things a pawn would

She and I'll beat

We enjoyed the difference

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play

She don't mah jong wait she don't let me wait

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play

Though I don't obey her

Still she loves to play her

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play

She don't mah jong wait she don't let me wait

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play

Though I don't obey her

Still she loves to play her

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play

She don't mah jong wait she don't let me wait

She don't mah jong mah jong she don't play
