Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Crazy Old Man From China
Back in the 60's, we use to sing this version ... possible varied because we didn't remember the right words?!? This is what I remember now ...

My Mother told me to open the door, But I didn't wanna!
I opened the door, he fell on the floor...
The Crazy Man from China.

My mother told me to give him a drink, but I didn't wanna!
I gave him a drink, he swallowed the sink ...
The Crazy Man from China.

My Mother told me to put him to bed, but I didn't wanna!
I put him to bed, he fell on his head...
The Crazy Man from China.

My Mother told me to bury him, but I didn't wanna!
I buried him, he grew a limb...
The Crazy Man from China!
