House of Bamboo Lyrics


A G A
Number fifty-four,
A G Em7 A
The house with the bamboo door,
A G Em7 A G
Bamboo roof and bamboo walls,
Em7 A G Em7 A
They've even got a bamboo floor!
Em7 A G/B A7 D6 Dalt Gdim D
You must get to know Soho Joe,
Em7 A G/B A7
He runs an Expresso,

D C D
Called the House of Bamboo.
Em7 A G/B A7
It's-a made of sticks.
D6 Dalt Gdim D
Sticks and bricks,
Em7 A G/B A7
But you can get your kicks
D C D
In the house of bamboo.
A7 Em7 G/B A7 Em7 A7 Em7 A7
In this ca - si - no, you can drink a chi no,
D A7 G D Bm7 A7 G D
And it's gotcha swingin' to the cha cha
A7 Em7 G/B A7 Em7 A7 Em7 A7
Dance the bo - le - ro in a som - bre - ro.
D A7 G D
Shake like a snake!
A7 Em7 G/B A7 Em7 A7 Em7 A7
You wanna drop in when the cats are hop - pin'.
D A7 G D Bm7 A7 G D
Let your two feet move-a to the big beat;
A7 Em7 G/B A7 Em7 A7 Em7 A7
Pick yourself a kit - ten and listen to a plat - ter
D A7 G D
That rocks the juke-box!
Em7 A G/B A7 D6 Dalt Gdim D
I'm-a telling you, when you're blue,
Em7 A G/B A7
Well there's a lot to do
D C D
In the House Of Bamboo.
