I understand that this song is not politically correct. It appears in it's various forms to be pretty widespread internationally. My version comes from my great aunt who was born 1888 in Ireland. I am pretty sure she never met anybody from China and it was just a rhyme like some of the other nonsensical songs and rhymes they used to pass the time with. I have no other agenda than to record my family's version.

In China lived a certain man
His name was Chickory Chi Chang Yang
His legs were long and his feet were small
And the Chinaman could not walk at all

Chicory Chi Chalu Chalang Tari Uri Igibana
Bunaba Disti Canti Kay Chinipa Ponika Chinea

They hired two men to carry him about
They turned out to be rather stout
They carried him up to the top of a hill
And rolled him down.........

That is all I remember.
