Lyrics & Music: Paul Kantner
Lyrics: Grace Slick

He`s stronger by talk than by sight
But by sight he`ll know you
You buy him a ride he`ll know you
Somebody`s bound to lead you
Sooner or later you`re bound to go

You don`t know what this man feels like
He doesn`t care if you think you know
Somebody`s bound to lead you
If that man got a smile on his face
Sooner or later you`re bound to go
bound to go

Let me tell you bout a man I knew
He roamed the depth and the breadth of China
On a horse that he grew himself
From the bark of a tree on mainland China
And he had a time yes he had the time of his life in China
He carried strife and harmony to all the people on the mainland

And there was a warlord who rode the murky depths of China
With a shotgun in his hand and he wondered where the people`d gone to
Have you got the time to listen while i sing this song
I had the time to listen to the man go right and wrong and right thru
China

chorus

And it ain`t what you want it`s what you need
No it ain`t what you want it`s what you need
And I`d rather be here than yesterday
It ain`t what you want it`s what you need

And there was a lady she rolled around in town in China
And there was a lady she rolled and rolled
And she killed a war she made the warlord rise in time
She sat him down took him down and she laid him out for just one more
round

Drunk in a beautiful garden celebration
Here comes the Khan Storm the palace look for Alice
Rising Oriental girl diving back for just one more pearl

chorus

And it ain`t what she wants it`s what she needs
She don`t want your sound she wants your country
And I`d rather be next year than on the way to Bombay
It ain`t what you want it`s what you need
