HOUSE OF BAMBOO
(William Crompton, Norman Murrells)

Also recorded by:

Earl Grant


Number fifty-four,
The house with the bamboo door,
Bamboo roof and bamboo walls,
They've even got a bamboo floor!

You must get to know - Soho Joe,
He runs an Espresso,
Called the House of Bamboo.

It's-a made of sticks.
Sticks and bricks,
But you can get your kicks
In the house of bamboo.

In this casino, you can drink a chino,
And it's gotcha swingin' to the cha cha
Dance the bolero in a sombrero.
An?Shake - like a snake!

You wanna drop in when the cats are hoppin'.
Let your two feet move-a to the big beat;
Pick yourself a kit - ten and listen to a platter
That rocks - the juke-box!

I'm-a telling you, when you're blue,
Well there's a lot to do
In the House Of Bamboo.
