They're gonna turn the place upside down

B/f# e |intro 2 ms.

Till you won't recognize it at all



Streets were wide open

Till the break of dawn

'twas frisco in its heyday

Imported from hong kong

For about five dollars

Or one thousand yen

You could gamble n ramble in a brothel

Or take it to the opium den



Shoot out in chinatown

They nailed up every door

They're gonna level it to the ground

And close it up for evermore



Confucius had once stated

All across the land

Below the surface, crime and love

They go hand in hand

The fire dragons burn

Buddha's lost his smile

But swears that we will meet again

In just a little while



1st chorus

B/f# e add2 |b5 under far east jam fade

Till you won't recognize it at all
