              Year of the Tiger’s What We Mark!

              Ev’rywhere Red & Gold Abound!

              Firecrackers are All Around!

 

              New Years Here is a Grand Party!

              In China They Party Harty!

              New Years, a Workers Holiday,

              Lasts Seven Days, With One Week’s Pay!

 

              It’s the Tiger, Not the Lion,

              Who Chinese Say is the Scion!

              In Their Jungles, the Tigers Rule!
