On A Slow Boat To China - Bette Midler

(Bette:) "Hey, nice piano playin', Manilla."
(Barry:) "Thank you, Miss M."
(Bette:) "Whatcha doin' these days?"
(Barry:) "Makin' records."
(Bette:) "Really?"
(Barry:) "Yes, really."
(Bette:) "Do you still play piano for people?"
(Barry:) "Well, depends on who."

(Bette:) Hmmm, I'm gonna get you
on a slow boat to China,
all to myself alone;
Get you and keep you in my arms evermore;
Leave all the others
waitin' on a faraway shore.

(Bette & Barry:) Out on the briny
where the moon's big and shiny,
melting your heart of stone.
I'm gonna get you
on a slow boat to China,
all to myself alone.

(Barry:) "Bette, I didn't know you felt that way about me."
(Bette:) "I don't. I need a piano player."
(Barry:) "Ahh, just like the old days!"
(Bette:) "You're not gonna change keys on me, are ya?"
(Barry:) "Unh Huh."
(Bette:) "Ohhh!"

(Bette:) I'm gonna get you
(Barry:) You're never gonna get me.
(Bette:) on a slow boat to China
(Barry:) Not in a fast or slow boat to any crick.
(Bette:) all to myself alone;
(Barry:) I just get motion sick
(Bette:) I'm gonna make you mine.
(Barry:) Ha, you'll have to stand in line.
(Bette:) Get you and keep you in my band evermore;
(Barry:) Now there's a new attack.
(Bette:) Leave all the others on the shore.
(Barry:) For me they'd swim to China, to China and back.

(Bette:) Out on the briny
(Barry:) I wouldn't like the ocean,
(Bette:) where the moon's big and shiny,
(Barry:) not even in a rowboat.
(Bette:) melting your heart of stone.
Come on, what do you say?
(Barry:) Ha ha, you always get your way.
(Bette & Barry:) I'm gonna get you
on a slow boat to China,
all to myself alone, to-ge-ther.
All to myself alone.
