I watched the whale ride the 
Throwing fountains of the sun
The light here flied on my back
Wait for a miracle to come
Cargo comes and cargo goes
And everybody knows

That we're all on
A slow boat to China
Yes, we're all on
A slow boat to China

I often wonder if you're up the mast
But down in the hole
Sleeping in the captains quarters
Right here with this girl
Last time we met was at the port
And I dreamt you'd snuck in for

We'd be all on
A slow boat to China
Yes, we're all on
A slow boat to China
We're all sailing the seas on this snail

I cast in line
But I don't catch much
But it don't seem to matter
'Cause I got the Jesus touch
I turn one slice of bread
Into a stinking fish head right back into a feast
That could bring back the dead
I'm known for a port
Will reach and (?)
And when we'll arrive 
Our lives won't mean a thing

We're all sailing the seas
Sailing the seas
Sailing the seas on this snail
