Subject: RE: Lyr Req: 'Once in China there lived a great man...
My grandmother, born in 1899 used to sing this to me.

In China there lived a little man.
His name was Chingaly Ching Ching Chan.
His head was big and his feet were small,
So this little man couldn't walk at all.

Singing...Chingally Chingally Ching Ching Chan
Deego, Deego happy man.
Curo, presto, canty-lo.
