Chitty Chitty Bang Bang: Me Ol' Bamboo
A gentleman's got a walking stick. A seaman's got a gaff. And the merry men of Robin Hood They used a quarterstaff. On the Spanish plains inside their canes They hide their ruddy swords. But we make do with an old bam-boo And everyone applauds! Me ol' bam-boo, me ol' bam-boo You'd better never bother with me ol' bam-boo. You can have me hat or me bum-ber-shoo But you'd better never bother with me ol' bam-boo.
When punting on the beautiful Thames
You use a sturdy pole.
To protect their fair complexion
Ladies use a parasol.
It's useful in the underbrush
To have a hefty spear.
Right!
But what we do with an old bam-boo Makes everybody cheer! Me ol' bam-boo, me ol' bam-boo You'd better never bother with me ol' bam-boo You can have me hat or me bum-ber-shoo But you'd better never bother with me ol' bam-boo Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 'Ere we go, mate . . .
A flyer in an air-e-o-plane
He steers it with a stick
He does?
A collier in the pits o' Wales
He leans upon his pick
That's right!
Now every wheel of an automobile Revolves around a shaft (HEY!) But what we do with an old bam-boo Makes every one go daft. And 1 - 2 Me ol' bam-boo, me ol' bam-boo You'd better never bother with me ol' bam-boo. You can have me hat or me bum-ber-shoo But you'd better never bother with me ol' bam-boo. (Dance break) And a 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - and a 5 and a 6 and a 7 HO! Me ol' bam-boo, me ol' bam-boo You'd better never bother with me ol' bam-boo. You can have me hat or me bum-ber-shoo But you'd better never bother with me ol' bam-boo. You'd better never bother with me ol' bam-boo!
