Did you ever hear
that loving Chinatown rag?
Keep your feet a moving
like a champagne jag;
just lead me to it, Babe,
Oh! how they do it, Babe,
Darling, ain't it entrancing?
I just get that dreamy feeling
right thro' and thro'
feel like doing something, Honey,
I shouldn't do,
see Pinkey Pankey 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;
Slide'y, glide'y
by my side'y,
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;
Slide'y, glide'y
by my side'y,
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 doing Salome,
that ting a ling 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;
Slide'y, glide'y
by my side'y,
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;
Slide'y, glide'y
by my side'y,
look out Lovey, Turtle Dovey
make no pushee and no shovee,
teach me to prance and dance,
that Chinatown Rag.
