Now, Arab sheiks on the burning sands, [bad word] into their harems and clap their hands, 
Said, [bad word] on, girls, are you ready to play? 
Let's have a little more of that swingin' today." 

Now, geisha girls in old Japan, 
Wink behind their peacock fans, 
Since they learned to say, "Yeah! 
Let's swing it like Amelican's swing swing dance!" 

Now, in the land of Fu Manchu, 
The girls all now do the Suzie-Q, 
Clap their hands in the center of the floor, 
Saying, "Ching, ching, chop-suey, swing some more!" 

Now, Gypsy caravans have changed their mode, 
They [bad word] down the Romany road, 
With their hi-de-hos, and their hey-hey-diddle, 
Doin' the swing on the Gypsy fiddle. 

Them eastern wisemen know the story, 
Of the swing with Oriental glory, 
They stroke their beards and grin, 
Sayin', "Swing, little children, till the [bad word] in!"
