I was hiding away from crooks when I met the only girl I thought I ever liked,
she said her name was Wanda...
A real oriental smasher, smart as a whip!
Easy to be with at the coffee-shop where we met...
Then she acted funny; kinda aloof like a Siamese cat!
She wasn't hungry but she knew I was...
We walked up hill in China town to the Shanghai Tower where they rent rooms by the hour...
I was in the mood for some sweet and sour!
All I got to eat was sour-dough!
We got drunk on cheap hooch, then she tossed me to the dogs, I wound up on skid row...
