Uptown
It's murder out in the street
Uptown
It's murder out in the street
That's where I found my mandarin plum
That's where you'd be if you found one

アップタウン
路上で殺人
あの中国娘を見初めた場所
通いつめた場所

Where the nights are bright
And joy is complete
Keep my squeeze on Green Flower Street

煌々と明かりが灯る享楽の街
グリーンフラワーストリート
貢いだカネと共に去りぬ

Since May
There's trouble most every night
Since May
There's trouble most every night
Where once we danced our sweet routine
It reeks of wine and kerosene

５月以降
揉め事が絶えない
そこは二人で踊った店
甘美な調べとワインと灯籠の匂い

Where the nights are bright
And joy is complete
Keep my squeeze on Green Flower Street

There's a special place for lovers
One we understand
There where neon bends in daylight sky
In that sunny room she soothes me
Cools me with her fan
We're drifting
A thousand years roll by

曖昧茶屋
暗黙の了解
青空にネオンサイン
日当たりのいい部屋で
寄り添い扇いでくれる
千年の愉楽

Lou Chang
Her brother burning with rage
Lou Chang
Her brother he's burning with rage
I'd like to know what's on his mind
He says hey buddy you're not my kind

兄のルー・チャン
怒り狂っている
俺のことを疑っているのか？
アンタはこっちの人間じゃないからな...

Where the nights are bright
And joy is complete
Keep my squeeze on Green Flower Street

Where the nights are bright
And joy is complete
Keep my squeeze on Green Flower Street
