Lyrics
Chorus
Aye-aye-aye-aye
In China they never grow chilly
So sing me one more verse
That's worse than the first
Make sure that it's foolish and silly
A canner exceedingly canny
One morning remarked to his granny
“A canner can can anything that he can
But a canner can't can a can, can he?â€
Chorus
Aye-aye-aye-aye
In China they never grow chilly
So sing me one more verse
That's worse than the first
Make sure that it's foolish and silly
A tutor who tooted the flute
Tried to tutor two tooters to toot
Said the two to the tutor, “Is it tougher to toot
Or to tutor two tooters to toot?â€
Chorus
Aye-aye-aye-aye
In China they never grow chilly
So sing me one more verse
That's worse than the first
Make sure that it's foolish and silly
A certain young fellow named Beebee
Wished to marry a lady named Phoebe
But, he said, “I must see what a minister's fee be
Before Phoebe be Phoebe Beebeeâ€
Chorus
Aye-aye-aye-aye
In China they never grow chilly
So sing me one more verse
That's worse than the first
Make sure that it's foolish and silly
