Trouble in Hong Kong Songtext

von Sailor

Deep in the heart of the midnight world,
(Down in the Red Light)
A story was told of a beautiful girl,
(Queen of the Red Light).
She was born on a sampan
Never knew her dad
But her looks were filled with fortune
And for this they knew she'd be an ocean
Of trouble in Hong Kong, trouble in Hong Kong.

People may live by the rules of the town
(Down in the Red Light)
But she made her own by the strength of her crown
(Queen of the Red Light).
She would aim with a shot gun
To chase the pimps away
But one night, they came too many
And the price was always high for any
Trouble in Hong Kong, trouble in Hong Kong.

So she ran through the streets and the alleyways
Down to the docks.
Why didn't she call the cops ?
(I don't know!).
But from those kind of guys, no one ever gets away.
Keeping it silent is what they prefer.
So nobody knows what happened to her.
But a newspaper man said:
That you don't go far
When you go against the underworld.
Boy! they bring you down.
Trouble - in Hong Kong, trouble - in Hong Kong.
