Subject: RE: Song Req: 'There was China Man...'
My Mom taught it to us as:
There was an old man from Chinatown His name was chittereye chee chi cho His legs were long His feet were short This old man could laugh nor snort
Chittereye chee chi cho chigaloro Bungo loro piggy wiggy waggo Hoco poco hit 'im on the coco Chittereye chittereye chee chi cho
China man had a wife Led him such an aweful life Cut his pigtails off so long Sold them for a Chinese song
Chittereye chee chi cho chigaloro Bungo loro piggy wiggy waggo Hoco poco hit 'im on the coco Chittereye chittereye chee chi cho
China man he did die In his coffin he did lie Shipped his body off to Japan And that was the end of the China man
(chorus sung as fast as humanly possible) Chittereye chee chi cho chigaloro Bungo loro piggy wiggy waggo Hoco poco hit 'im on the coco Chittereye chittereye chee chi cho
