[Verse 1]
Way up in Korea midst rocks, ice and snow
The poor Chinese commie is feeling so low
As our Corsairs roar by overhead
He knows that his buddies will all soon be dead
[Chorus]
Dinky die (Dinky Dinky die), Dinky die (Dinky Dinky die)
He knows that his buddies will all soon be dead
[Verse 2]
Ming Pao went way up to cold Koto Ri
His prize Chinese army in action to see
He said that his soldiers no battle could lose
But all that he found was their hats and their shoes
[Chorus]
Dinky die (Dinky Dinky die), Dinky die (Dinky Dinky die)
But all that he found was their hats and their shoes
[Verse 3]
Now, Uncle Joe Stalin, your stoogеs have found
It just doesn't pay to invade forеign ground
When you disturb the serene Asian calm
You've brought on the rockets, the bombs and napalm
[Chorus]
Dinky die (Dinky Dinky die), Dinky die (Dinky Dinky die)
You've brought on the rockets, the bombs and napalm
[Verse 4]
So here's to P'yongyang and to old Hagaru
To Kumh-wa and Kaesong and Uijonbu
To all Gyrene pilots and Carriers at sea
And the Death Rattler's Squadron, old three-twenty-three
[Chorus]
Dinky die (Dinky Dinky die), Dinky die (Dinky Dinky die)
And the Death Rattler's Squadron, old three-twenty-three
