[Intro] Headlights cut the fog by the Bay Got one hand on the wheel, one chance to save the day [Verse 1] Jack Burton rolls through the airport gate Wang says, "Move fast, man, we can't be late" A green-eyed bride vanished under red signs Gang cars disappeared where the old world hides Down past the kitchens, beneath the street Where stone-faced warriors guard the heat I came for a friend, not a war with the dead Then a thousand-year ghost put a price on my head [Pre-Chorus] Wang draws steel, Gracie draws near Egg Shen laughs like he’s got no fear The walls start breathing, the floor starts to shake Somebody tell me what mistake I made [Chorus] Big trouble under Chinatown Thunder in the tunnels, bring the ceiling down Two green-eyed beauties and a curse to break A sorcerer waiting for the bride he’ll take Pork-Chop Express, tear through the night Jack Burton’s talking, but he’s ready to fight If the underworld wants to shut me out I’ll kick in the door and drive trouble out [Verse 2] Lo Pan wears a crown in a room without skin A ghost in a storm with a hunger to win He needs one bride to return to the sun But two green-eyed women mean the game’s not done Wang moves like water, blades flash blue Gracie says, "Jack, this is all because of you" Egg Shen raises a cup, mutters words in the smoke Then a winged beast drops through the stone like a joke [Pre-Chorus] Lightning cracks through the temple roof Jack checks his boots and demands some proof The ancient dead come roaring in waves No one gets rescued by behaving brave [Chorus] Big trouble under Chinatown Thunder in the tunnels, bring the ceiling down Two green-eyed beauties and a curse to break A sorcerer waiting for the bride he’ll take Pork-Chop Express, tear through the night Jack Burton’s talking, but he’s ready to fight If the underworld wants to shut me out I’ll kick in the door and drive trouble out [Bridge] A knife in the dark, a flash of jade A promise kept and a bargain made Lo Pan rises, the old curse sings Jack fires once and breaks the wings Wang grabs Miao Yin, Gracie finds the way Egg Shen grins at the coming day Two bright eyes follow the road back west And Jack says, "Just another easy quest" [Final Chorus] Big trouble under Chinatown Magic in the rafters, let the thunder pound Two green-eyed beauties, safe and alive Four wheels turning while the dawn arrives Pork-Chop Express, rolling home tonight Ancient ghosts fading in the morning light If anybody asks how we made it out Tell ’em Jack Burton was never in doubt [Outro] Fog lifts slow from the Golden Gate The engine keeps humming, but we’re running late Big trouble behind us, blue sky ahead And one more wild story nobody believes was said ···©️ 2026 Swami Records ··· Lyrics/Syles by Swami Dave
