I Took A Little Train
To Pataling*
And As We Rode
We Heard The Children Sing

HUNG HOW
HUNG HOW
BOO HOW
BOO HOW
NEEHOW MAH?
NEEHOW MAH?
HUNG HOW
HUNG HOW
BOO HOW
BOO HOW
NEEHOW MAH?
NEEHOW MAH?

*The alighting point before walking to the Great Wall – it took 15 minutes to walk

Near PEKING, CHINA there is a great wall – 
it is long and it is tall. 
Some tell a story in a song that CHINA’S GREAT WALL 
IS 2000 MILES LONG!

HUNG HOW

BOO HOW
BOO HOW
NEEHOW MAH?
NEEHOW MAH?

HUNG HOW
HUNG HOW
BOO HOW
BOO HOW
NEEHOW MAH?
NEEHOW MAH?
