English: China we owe a lot to you Sheet music, cover page
When I woke up the other morn, I found a new Republic had been born, There was to be democracy in China; We congratulate her, But we know old China, too, Did an awful lot for me and you, Now her freedom's won, Let's thank her for what she's done. China, 'way out near Asia Minor, No country could be finer beneath the sun; You gave us silk to dress our lovely women, 'Twas worth the price, And when we couldn't get potatoes, you gave us rice. We mix chop suey with your chop sticks, You've taught us quite a few tricks we never knew, We take our hats off to one thing we've seen, Your laundries keep our country clean, China, We owe a lot to you. Now, China we all realize, The magic of your dreamy almond eyes, It's plain to see our crockery is China; Ev'ry cup and saucer, All our Broadway Johns and Janes Couldn't do without your bamboo canes, Tho' you're weak in song, We all know your tea is strong. China, 'way out near Asia Minor,etc. etc. |
