Big Bamboo Lyrics
Money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
Money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
Money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
Money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
Oh with the big big bamboo bamboo
O la la la la la la la la la
Working for the Yankee dollar
Well I asked my lady
What should I do to make her happy and make love true
She said
The only thing that I want from you is a little
Little piece of a big bamboo
She wants the big big bamboo
Now I gave my lady a banana plant
She said I like it it's elegant
You must not let it go to waste
It's much too soft to suit my taste
I want the big big bamboo bamboo
O la la la la la la la la la
Working for the Yankee dollar
Well I gave my lady a sugar cane
Sweet up the sweets I did explain
She gave it back to my surprise
She liked the flavour but not the size
She wants the big big bamboo bamboo
O la la la la la la la la la
Working for the Yankee dollar
It's money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
Money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
Money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
Money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
Big big bamboo bamboo
O la la la la la la la la la
Working for the Yankee dollar
Now I met a Chinese Mongol Dig Hung Do
He got married went to Mexico
His wife divorced him very quick
She wants bamboo and not chopstick
She wants big big bamboo bamboo
O la la la la la la la la la
Working for the Yankee dollar
Money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
Money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
Money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
Money in the hand is the Yankee dollar bill
