Walkabout long chinatown

Walking around Chinatown,

Head towards the corner,

Look around, shake your head,

Kick any old bucket,

You laugh, crazy, water on the brain (confused).Thinking back to you,

A long time since I left home,

More than two years without seeing you,

That is why I don't like you,

You foolish man, lost your money foolishly.It doesn't matter if I die here in Honiara,

What is lost is lost, a long time ago with you,

But if you think about me,

You can wait for two more years,

Let my skin get a little lighter here.Endure the time,

Two years I have not seen you,

Though I feel I don’t like you,

Man, you are silly, you lost money.Although I may die in Honiara,

I have lost time with you,

But if you think of me,

You can wait for another two years,

Let my skin lighten a little bit here.
