Shanghai Lil - Ruby Keeler/James Cagney
I've covered every little highway
And I've been climbing every hill
I've been looking high
And I've been looking low
Looking for my Shanghai Lil
The stars that hang high over Shanghai
Bring back the memory of a thrill
I've been looking high
And I've been looking low
Looking for my Shanghai Lil
I learned to love her
The little devil was just a butterfly
But you discover something on the level
Shining in her eyes
Oh I've been trying to forget her
But what's the use I never will
I've been looking high
And I've been looking low
Looking for my Shanghai Lil
I miss you very much a long time
I think that you no love me still
I've been looking high and I've been looking low
Looking for you Shanghai Lil
I think you go with other sweethearts
And very many tears I spill
He's been looking high and he's been looking low
Looking for you Shanghai Lil
I got new lover
You little devil you're just a butterfly
I like new lover
You're still on the level you can't kid this guy
I pray to Buddha in the joss-house
And Buddha he bring back my Bill
He's been looking high and he's been looking low
Looking for you Shanghai Lil
