House of Bamboo Songtext
von Southern Culture on the Skids

Number fifty-four
The house with a bamboo door
Bamboo roof and a bamboo walls
It′s even got a bamboo floor

You must get to know
Soho Joe
He runs an Expresso
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

Well in this casino, you can drink a chino
And it′s gotcha swingin' to the cha cha
Dance the bolero in a sombrero
Shake like a snake


You wanna stop in when the cats are hoppin'
Let your two feet move up to the big beat
Pick yourself a kitten and a listen to the platter
That rocks the juke-box

I′ma telling you
When you′re blue
Well there's a lot to do
In the House of Bamboo, go big boy

Let′s go, go

You must get to know
Soho Joe
He runs an Expresso
Called the House of Bamboo

Well in this casino, you can drink a chino
Let your two feet move up to the big beat
Pick yourself a kitten and a listen to the platter
That rocks

I'm telling you
That when you′re blue
Well there's a lot to do
In the House of Bamboo


Number fifty-four
The house with a bamboo door
Bamboo roof and a bamboo walls
It′s even got a bamboo floor

In the House of Bamboo

Number fifty-four
The house with a bamboo door
Bamboo roof and a bamboo walls
It's even got a bamboo floor

In the House of Bamboo
