I went to Chinatown

'way back in old Hong Kong

To get some Egg Foo Yung

And then I heard a gong

Ling ting tong tried to sing that song

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
