Subject: RE: Lyr Req: 'Once in China there lived a great man...
Nan from Liverpool UK sang us this version

Once there was a very great man, his name was
Chicaraca Chee Chi Chi,
His face was merry and his sins were small,
He went to the Cross and he lost them all

With a Chicaraca chee chi, chi chicalora.
Concalora, many pee cat.
Cat go, too go, aticatti catti go,
Hush a bye, china buy, Chinese go.
