Thread Name: Origins: In Chinaland there lived a great man
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: In Chinaland there lived a great man
In Chinatown there lived a man
Whose name was Ikki Chikki Chi Cho Chan
His legs were long, his feet were short
Poor old man he could hardly walk

Ikki Chikki Chi Cho Chy Chickalora
Bobtail Dora Paddy Waddy Wack
Oko Moko, Hit him on the boko    (refrain)
Hit him hard, hit him hard
There he goes

He had servants to carry him about
And on the mountain, you could hear them shout
"Here he comes, there he goes
The poor old man with the turned up toes"
