“Cantata of Refugees in Nanjing” Karaoke (midi with lyrics).
Lyrics: James Henry McCallum.
Tune: James Henry McCallum.
We want beans for our breakfast,
Beans for our lunch,
Beans at suppertime.
Huang dou, qing dou, lu dou, can dou.
Beans every meal.
We will give every refugee
A thorough dose of Vitamin B
To stamp out any beriberi.
Can’t you hear the Nanmin crying
For their beans, beans, beans?
Can’t you hear the Nanmin crying
For their beans, beans, beans?
