*ESTHER* |
|
Down in the jungles lived a maid |
|
Of royal blood though dusky shade |
|
*TOOTIE* |
|
A marked impression once she made |
|
Upon a Zulu |
|
*ESTHER* |
|
From Matabooloo |
|
*TOOTIE* |
|
And every morning he would be |
|
Down underneath the bamboo tree |
|
*ESTHER* |
|
A Waitin' there his love to see |
|
*TOOTIE* |
|
And then to her he's sing |
|
*BOTH* |
|
To her he'd sing |
|
If you like-a me, like I like-a you and we like-a both the same |
|
I like-a say this very day, I like-a change your name. |
|
'Cause I love-a you and lov-a you true and if you-a love-a me |
|
One live as two, two live as one |
|
Under the bamboo tree |
