This is a version of a song that was taught to my Grandmother by her ancestors who immigrated from England to the US in 1868. She was born in 1898.

There once in China lived a man whose name was Iko Chico Chicory Chan
Ladama Coty Dusty-o Willopee Wallopee Chine-o.

One day the people of the town went up the hill to roll him down
From top to bottom they all began to tickle and play with the chinaman

Ikco Chico Chickery Chan Iko Chico Chinaman
Ladama Coty Dusty-o Willopee Wallopee Chine-o.

One day the Chinaman did die and in his coffin he did lie
They shipped him over to Japan and that was the end of the Chinaman

Iko Chico Chickery Chan Iko Chico Chinaman
Ladama Coty Dusty-o Willopee Wallopee Chine-o.
