Lyrics

I wake up in the morning and I work till night My skin has turned brown from that sun so bright All night I'm tossing and turning 'cause my dreams are so strong And my hands they callous 'cause my working day's too long Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) Yes you're sweeter than the sugar cane up on Bamboo Road We walk out to the cane fields, all thirty five men At twelve o'clock they give us water and we stagger back again Four o'clock, the sun gets higher, I hear that screen door slam See you in the big house kitchen window from the cane fields where I'm in Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) Yeah you're sweeter than sugar cane Sweeter than sugar cane, sweeter than the sugar cane up on Bamboo Road I want to hold you close, Cher, I can only see you when I can All day I cut that pure cane sugar but I'm still a starving man Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) Up on Bamboo Road (Bamboo Road) Yes you're sweeter than the sugar cane Sweeter than the sugar cane, sweeter than the sugar cane up on Bamboo Road Up on Bamboo Road Yeah you're sweeter than the sugar cane Sweeter than the sugar cane ...
