Subject: RE: Lyr Req: 'Once in China there lived a great man...
I know nobody has posted here in a while but the version I was taught by my dad was:
chinese man had a wife
she gave him an awful life
cut his pigtails off so long
sold them for a chinese song
chideraka chee chi cho chikalora
bunga lora piggy wiggy waga
poko loco hit em on the coco
chiderby chiderby chee chi cho
chinese man he did die
in his coffin he will lie
ship him back to his native land
that's the end of the chinese man
chideraka chee chi cho chikalora
bunga lora piggy wiggy waga
poko loco hit em on the coco
chiderby chiderby chee chi cho
there is supposed to be a second verse in the middle but he never taught it to me lol
