Did you ever hear
that loving Chinatown Rag?
Keeps your feet a moving
like a champagne jag,
Just lead me to it, Babe,
Oh! how they do it, Babe,
Dancing, ain't it entrancing?
I just get that dreamy feeling
right thro' and thro'
Feel like doing something, Honey,
I shouldn't do,
see Pinky Panky Poo.
And Honolula Lu,
doing that Chinatown Rag.

Prancy fancy Chinee dancy,
hear that tune that makes you jiggle,
do that Honolula wiggle,
Kiss me and call me your mamma, mamma
tell me that I am your Yama, Yama,
Slidey Glidey
by my sidey,
look out lovey,
turtle dovey
make no pushee and no shovee,
teach me to prance and dance
that Chinatown Rag.

Prancy fancy Chinee dancy,
hear that tune that makes you jiggle,
do that Honolula wiggle,
Kiss me and call me your mamma, mamma
tell me that I am your Yama, Yama,
Slidey Glidey
by my sidey,
look out lovey,
turtle dovey
make no pushee and no shovee,
teach me to prance and dance
that Chinatown Rag.

When you hear that tune
you feel like leaving your home,
That tune started chamber maids
a dancing Salome
That tingaling refrain,
just play it once again,
Oh Babe, just dance it slow, babe,
If you want to win me, Honey,
now is your chance.
I just can't refuse you
while we're doing that dance,
I don't care what I do,
I just belong to you,
dancing that Chinatown Rag.

Prancy fancy Chinee dancy,
hear that tune that makes you jiggle,
do that Honolula wiggle,
Kiss me and call me your mamma, mamma
tell me that I am your Yama, Yama,
Slidey Glidey
by my sidey,
look out lovey,
turtle dovey
make no pushee and no shovee,
teach me to prance and dance
that Chinatown Rag.

Prancy fancy Chinee dancy,
hear that tune that makes you jiggle,
do that Honolula wiggle,
Kiss me and call me your mamma, mamma
tell me that I am your Yama, Yama,
Slidey Glidey
by my sidey,
look out lovey,
turtle dovey
make no pushee and no shovee,
teach me to prance and dance
that Chinatown Rag.
