Bamboo Songtext
von Vaughn Monroe

Bamboo walls, bamboo ceiling
And the rain coming down seems to say
In a voice so appealing
"Go away, oh don′t delay"

Though there's bamboo all around me
I vow I′ll find a way
But bamboo has tied and bound me
And I know I'm here to stay


Why do the tom-toms all beat so loudly?
Why do the shadows all seem to crowd me?
Can't stop this pounding, pounding, pounding in my head
Through the night I toss on my bamboo bed

Bamboo walls, bamboo ceiling
Hold me, though love is gone
In my heart there is no feeling
But somehow I carry on

Bamboo walls (bamboo walls)
Bamboo ceiling (bamboo ceiling)
Bamboo dreams (bamboo dreams)
Within my heart
Bamboo
