Little Sing a Loo
and Ming Toy Foo
were sweethearts
never had a quarrel
until yesterday.
Sing a Loo thought he'd be a sport
so he went and cut off his pigtail short
you should hear Miss Ming Toy say:

Oh! SingaLoo
whad'ya do with your que
that you wore in Chinatown.
I loved when it hung down
it was such a big tail
what a lovely pigtail
SingaLoo I'm so blue
thru' and thru'
when I see you I just frown,
you were once a slinky chinky
Now you're on the blink, blink, blinky,
SingaLoo if I knew what to do,
I'd have stopped you long ago.
I thought you'd let it grow
I used to love it so
I know that you don't care the same
for chop sticks and chow mein
But a chink without a que
is like a cow without a moo,
a cat without a meow
a dog without a bowwow
SingaLoo
whad'ya do with your que
that you wore in Chinatown.

Oh! SingaLoo
whad'ya do with your que
that you wore in Chinatown.
I loved when it hung down
it was such a big tail
what a lovely pigtail
SingaLoo I'm so blue
thru' and thru'
when I see you I just frown,
you were once a slinky chinky
Now you're on the blink, blink, blinky,
SingaLoo if I knew what to do,
I'd have stopped you long ago.
I thought you'd let it grow
I used to love it so
I know that you don't care the same
for chop sticks and chow mein
But a chink without a que
is like a cow without a moo,
a cat without a meow
a dog without a bowwow
SingaLoo
whad'ya do with your que
that you wore in Chinatown.

Little Sing a Loo and
Ming Toy Foo were married
what a celebration
when the joybells rang,
Sing a Loo told the happy throng
that his little Ming Toy
would sing a song
This is what Miss Ming Toy sang:

Oh! SingaLoo
whad'ya do with your que
that you wore in Chinatown.
I loved when it hung down
it was such a big tail
what a lovely pigtail
SingaLoo I'm so blue
thru' and thru'
when I see you I just frown,
you were once a slinky chinky
Now you're on the blink, blink, blinky,
SingaLoo if I knew what to do,
I'd have stopped you long ago.
I thought you'd let it grow
I used to love it so
I know that you don't care the same
for chop sticks and chow mein
But a chink without a que
is like a cow without a moo,
a cat without a meow
a dog without a bowwow
SingaLoo
whad'ya do with your que
that you wore in Chinatown.

Oh! SingaLoo
whad'ya do with your que
that you wore in Chinatown.
I loved when it hung down
it was such a big tail
what a lovely pigtail
SingaLoo I'm so blue
thru' and thru'
when I see you I just frown,
you were once a slinky chinky
Now you're on the blink, blink, blinky,
SingaLoo if I knew what to do,
I'd have stopped you long ago.
I thought you'd let it grow
I used to love it so
I know that you don't care the same
for chop sticks and chow mein
But a chink without a que
is like a cow without a moo,
a cat without a meow
a dog without a bowwow
SingaLoo
whad'ya do with your que
that you wore in Chinatown.
