Big Bamboo

I asked my woman what should I do
to make her happy and to keep it true
And she said: what I want from you
is a little, little piece of the big bamboo

The big bamboo it grows down strong
the big bamboo it grows down and long
the big bamboo stands up straight and tall
the big bamboo pleases one and all

I gave my woman a sugar cane
the sweetest of the sweetest, I didn't explain
she gave it back, much to my surprise
she liked the flavor, but not the size

The big bamboo it grows down and long
the big bamboo is always strong
the big bamboo stands up straight and tall
the big bamboo pleases one and all

I gave my girl a coconuts
she said she liked: it's ok, but
there's only one thing that worries me:
what good is the nuts without a tree?

The big bamboo it grows down and long
the big bamboo is always strong
the big bamboo stands up straight and tall
the big bamboo pleases one and all

I met a china man without a dick bamboo
he got married with a mexico
his wife passed him drinking quick
she liked bamboo but not chopstick

The big bamboo it grows down and long
the big bamboo is always strong
the big bamboo stands up straight and tall
the big bamboo pleases one and all
