Whitey Smiths Majestic Hotel Orchestra, 1928

Whitey Smith var en af Shanghais førende jazzmusikere. Night Time in the Old Shanghai var et af de numre han indspillede i Shanghai:

When it's night time in dear old Shanghai

and I'm dancing, sweetheart, with you.

Then it's bright time in dear old Shanghai

with our lips, oh, felt so true.

In my arms, dear, long way from home, dear

we'll let the rest of the world go by.

While the moon shines bright we will make love

when it's night time in old Shanghai.
