A5       G5     A5 
Number fifty-four, 
    A5               G5 E5  A5 
The house with the bamboo door, 
A5       G5   E5  A5       G5      
Bamboo roof and bamboo walls, 
E5     A5          G5  E5  A5 
They've even got a bamboo floor! 
 
 
         E5     A5  G5  A5  D5  Dalt G5  D5 
You must get to know        Soho Joe, 
           E5    A5  G5  A5 
He runs an Expresso, 
           D5         C5  D5 
Called the House of Bamboo. 
 
 
       E5       A5    G5  A5 
It's-a made of sticks. 
 D5        Dalt    G5  D5 
Sticks and bricks, 
            E5       A5    G5  A5 
But you can get your kicks 
        D5        C5  D5 
In the house of bamboo. 
 
 
    A5  E5  G5  A5  E5     A5      E5 A5 
In this ca - si - no, you can drink a chi no, 
D5   A5   G5  D5   B5      A5     G5    D5 
And it's gotcha swingin' to the cha cha 
A5    E5      G5  A5 E5 A5      E5   A5 
Dance the bo - le - ro in  a som - bre - ro. 
D5    A5   G5       D5 
Shake    like a snake! 
 

A5  E5   G5  A5  E5     A5       E5   A5 
You wanna drop in when the cats are hop - pin'. 
D5   A5   G5    D5   B5    A5     G5    D5 
Let your two feet move-a to the big beat; 
A5       E5   G5    A5      E5    A5   E5    A5 
Pick yourself a kit - ten and listen to a plat - ter  
      D5    A5      G5     D5 
That rocks    the juke-box! 
 
 
      E5     A5   G5  A5  D5          Dalt G5  D5 
I'm-a telling you,         when you're blue, 
              E5     A5   G5  A5 
Well there's a lot to do 
        D5       C5   D5 
In the House Of Bamboo.
