(Choirs)
Ching-ling Ching-ling Ching-ling Chan, ride all day, go happy man,
You go Crico Cardio, galloping walloping, Chiney Oh,

In China lived a little man,
His name was Ching-ling Ching-ling Chan,
His head was big, and his feet were small,
And that little man couldn't walk at all.

(Choirs)
Ching-ling Ching-ling Ching-ling Chan, ride all day, go happy man,
You go Crico Cardio, galloping walloping, Chiney Oh,

Miss Sky-high was short and fat.
She had money and he had none.
And under her window he would go,
And play her a tune on his little banjo.

(Choirs)
Ching-ling Ching-ling Ching-ling Chan, ride all day, go happy man,
You go Crico Cardio, galloping walloping, Chiney Oh,

Miss Sky-high with words of love,
Held her wash bowl up above.
She let it fall on Ching-ling chan,
And that was the end of the china man.

(choirs)
Ching-ling Ching-ling Ching-ling Chan, ride all day, go happy man,
You go Crico Cardio, galloping walloping, Chiney Oh,

In remembrance of Grandma Figley

P.S.
This version of the song goes back at least four generations in my family. My Great Grandpa worked in the coal minds. I have Irish and Chinese blood. Talk about a double whammy. This Song was not passed down in my family to be derogatory. I think it would be sad if we ever take political correctness to the point where we are afraid to laugh at ourselves. As long as you are fair about it, humor can just as easily unite us. I have never listened to this song, and thought, hay man, that's me. Even as a Child I didn't make that leap. I know I tease with my friends all the time, but the intent is never mean. This is just a nostalgic and historic breakdown of a song. This is not a political statement. I am an American, but I'm not going to take Yankee Doodle out of context.

I couldn't remember if it was

And under her window
or
So under her window

So I went with what my mom said to keep it closer to the source. This is the song as was passed down in my Grandma as a child.
