Vaughn Monroe - Bamboo lyrics

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
