Lyrics Bamboo - Vaughn Monroe

Bamboo

Bamboo walls, bamboo ceiling
And the rain come down, seem 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 ceiling
Bamboo beam, within my heart
