Vaughn Monroe
Bamboo
Bamboo walls, bamboo ceiling,And the rain come down, seem to sayIn 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 headThrough the night I toss, on myBamboo bed.Bamboo walls, bamboo ceiling,Hold me, though love is gone.In my heart, there is no feelingBut somehow, I carry on.Bamboo walls, bamboo ceilingBamboo beam, within my heart.
