Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai
Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai
Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai

He took a trip to see his mother
And she was sick, how he got over, he took pride in everything he did
Never had a harsh word of English

Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai
Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai

Words on the phone, words on the wind
How does he travel? Who's with him?
Didn't think Chan had a family
Grew accustomed to a symphony, Chan held on to his mystery

Chan, what'y doin man?
Say Chan, I wrote this song about you man

It goes, Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai
Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai
Chan goes to Shanghai
Miss his cooking, sense of humour
Miss his timing, his discipline, we all miss Chan but we can't avoid
Now there's an empty space, a void
Goin to give to leave his job
He's the only man, I wrote this song

Hey, Chan, what'y doin man?
Say Chan, I wrote this song about you man

It goes, Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai
Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai
Hitchhikes, Hitchhikes
To Shanghai, Hitchhikes, to Shanghai
Chan

Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai
Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai
Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai
Chan goes to Shanghai
Chan hitchhikes to Shanghai
Chan, hitchhikes, Oh Chan, anyway you can
Ha, Come back Chan, come back Chan
Shanghai Chan
Shanghai Chan
Shanghai Chan
Come back Chan..
