The Chinese song- no?

The moon was shining brightly
The old lady lit a fire to make tea,
A cup of tea,
And a cup of wine.
The trumpet played ticktick tacktack
as she was taking a daughter-in-law.

She took a short and bulky daughter-in-law
Who cooked delicious food.

Etc., she took various daughters-in-law of varying quality...
