Bamboo Road |
I wake up in the morning and I work till night |
My skin has turned brown from that sun so bright |
All night I’m tossing and turning 'cause my dreams are so strong |
And my hands they callous 'cause my working day’s too long |
Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) |
Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) |
Yes you’re sweeter than the sugar cane up on Bamboo Road |
We walk out to the cane fields, all thirty five men |
At twelve o’clock they give us water and we stagger back again |
Four o’clock, the sun gets higher, I hear that screen door slam |
See you in the big house kitchen window from the cane fields where I’m in |
Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) |
Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) |
Yeah you’re sweeter than sugar cane |
Sweeter than sugar cane, sweeter than the sugar cane up on Bamboo Road |
I want to hold you close, Cher, I can only see you when I can |
All day I cut that pure cane sugar but I’m still a starving man |
Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) |
Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) |
Yes you’re sweeter than the sugar cane |
Sweeter than the sugar cane, sweeter than the sugar cane up on Bamboo Road |
Up on Bamboo Road |
Yeah you’re sweeter than the sugar cane |
Sweeter than the sugar cane |
