If you wanna die in bed, follow my example
When you see a cloud ahead, it's time to show your class
Hit the door before they make a target of your ass
If you wanna die in bed in times of revolution
When the flag they wave is red, let pride fill up your chest
Meanwhile, pack a sack and take the first boat heading west
My precious souvenirs of all the golden years
Rolex watches in steel that look practically real
I need a little stock to start me in Bangkok
If you wanna die in bed, forget about your karma
When your life hangs by a thread, don't cry about the fates
Grab a stash of cash and plan a restaurant in the States
Let me stop for a bit, this was my greatest hit
Miss Saigon in her gown, I made queen of the town
They paid me twice and more for just another whore
Here I come, USA, your next champ's on his way
For men will always be men
The rules are the same for king or for clerk
Show me francs or dollars or yen
I'll set up a game, I know how things work
Why was I born of a race that thinks only of rice
And hates entrepreneurs? Me, I belong in a place
Where a man sets his price and you pay and he's yours
I should be American
Where every promise lands
And every businessman knows where he stands
First stop Bangkok, there I'll roam
Cross that ocean that's white with foam
To the place that's my heart's true home
If you wanna die in bed, don't care too much for country
Hit the open sea instead, float there like a cork
Uncle Ho Ho Ho, I'll have to call you from New York
