Chim Chim Cher-Ee - Louis Armstrong

Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey

Chim chim cher-ee!

A sweep is as lucky, as lucky can be

Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey

Chim chim cher-oo!

Good luck will rub off when I shakes hands with you

Or blow me a kiss and that’s lucky too

Chim chim chim-in-ey, chim chim chim-in-ey

Now, as the ladder of life has been strung

You may think a sweep’s on the bottommost rung

Though I spend my time in the ashes and that hm-hmm

In this whole wide world there’s no happier cat

Chim chim chim-in-ey, chim chim chim-in-ey

I choose me bristles with pride, yes, I do

A broom for the shaft and a brush for the flute

Though I’m covered in soot from my head to my toe

A sweep knows he’s welcome where’er he goes

Chim chim chim chim-in-ey, chim chim chim chim-in-ey

Chim chim chim chim-in-ey, chim chim chim chim-in-ey

Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey

Chim chim cher-ee!

'en you’re with a sweep, you’re in good com’any

Nowhere there’s a more happy crew

Than them that sings chim cham chim cher-oo

Chim-in-ey chim-ee cher-oo chim-cher-ee!
