Chine Chine ChineJe reviens de ChineQuand Paris me mineJ'mets les turbin's,
je m'débineChine Chine ChineJ'ai filé en ChineJ'ai trinqué,
tchin-tchinDes tass's de thé au jasmineChine Chine ChineJe reviens de ChineÇa fait ping-pong-pingLes yeux ça t'les cligneC'est pas tellement cleanMais tu dodelinesQuand la baie d'Hong-KongLa nuit s'illumineÇa fait GONG !Chine Chine ChineJe reviens de ChineJ'ai trinqué tchin-tchinDu thé au jasmineCroqué des pim' pim'Pimentées cuisinesQui t'allong'nt la tongueDe flamm's aussi longuesQu'un dragong !J'ai vu le royaumeDe la vie en jauneLes pagodes rouges où bougeLa dynastie MingJ'ai visité XianJ'ai zieuté GuilinJ'ai vu les rouleaux d'vélosQuand ils font leurs dring dring dringChine Chine ChineJ'ai filé en ChineQuand Paris me mineJ'mets les turbin's,
