[00:18.48] I've often wandered down
[00:20.26] To dreamy Chinatown
[00:23.00] The home of Ching-a-ling
[00:27.87] It's fine, I must declare
[00:31.43] But now I'm going where
[00:34.52] I can see the real, real thing
[00:36.64] I'll soon be there
[00:38.88] In a bamboo chair
[00:41.44] For I've got my fare from here to Shanghai
[00:46.36] Just picture me sipping oolong tea
[00:51.06] Served by a Chinaman who speaks the way up high
[00:56.69] I'll eat the way they do with a pair of wooden sticks
[01:01.12] And I'll have Ching Ling Foo doing all his magic tricks
[01:05.85] I'll get my mail from a pale pigtail
[01:10.73] For I mean to sail from here to Shanghai
[01:21.95] I'll have them teaching me
[01:24.00] To speak their language, gee
[01:27.18] When I can talk Chinese
[01:31.88] I'll come home on the run
[01:34.29] Then have a lot of fun
[01:38.59] Calling people what I please
[01:41.15] I'll soon be there
[01:43.86] In a bamboo chair
[01:45.93] For I've got my fare from here to Shanghai
[01:50.64] Just picture me sipping oolong tea
