The Charms
(written by Mabel Godwin)
(1955 #26)
I went to Chinatown
'way back in old Hong Kong
To get some Egg Foo Yung
And then I heard a gong
Called Tie-ess-a mo-cum boo-die-ay
Tie-ess-a mo-cum boo
Ling ting tong, he would never be wrong
Go on and sing your song, a-ling ting tong
And I looked around
The lights were going down
And this is what I found
A back in Chinatown
