Old Bald-Headed Chineseman

My mommy done told me to open the door, and oh I did not want to.
I opened the door, he fell to the floor, the old bald-headed Chineseman.
My mommy done told me to give him a drink, but oh I did not want to.
I gave him a drink, he drank out the sink, the old bald-headed Chineseman.
My mommy done told me to take off his hat, but oh I did not want to.
I took off his hat, he was as bald as a bat, the old bald-headed Chineseman.
