My Little Bimbo

Sailor Bill McCoy was a daring sailor boy,
His ship got wrecked a while on a Fiji-iji isle;
He led a savage life, he hunted with a knife!
He said, "I'll tell you all about it but
Please don't tell my wife

cho: Say, I've got a bimbo down on a bamboo isle.
     She's waiting there for me
     Beneath that bamboo tree.
     She's got the other bimbos beat a mile
     She dances gaily, daily
     She's make a hit with Barnum and Bailey,
     I'll build a bungalow on a bamboo isle.
     And when I go again, I'll stay a while..
     I've seen wrecks, plenty of wrecks,
     Out on the deep blue sea.
     But by heck there never was a wreck
     Like the wreck she made of me.
     'Cause all she wore was a great big Zulu smile,
     My little bimbo, down on a bamboo isle!

cho: Say, I've got a bimbo down on a bamboo isle.
     She's waiting there for me
     Beneath that bamboo tree.
     She's got the other bimbos beat a mile
     She dances gaily, daily
     She's got a shape like a ukulele
     I'll build a bungalow on a bamboo isle
     And when I go again I'll stay a while.
     I've seen dancers, plenty of dancers
     Wear a string of beads;
     Give that gal a good jazz band
     Boy that's all she'd need,
     'Cause all she wore was a great big Zulu smile,
     My little bimbo, down on a bamboo isle!
