Esther:
now.
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 a bamboo tree

Esther:
awaitin' there his love to see

Tootie:
and then to her he'd sing

Both:
to her he'd sing

Esther:
vamp.

Both:
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 love-a you true
and if you-a love-a me
one live as two
two live as one
under the bamboo tree




A gentle breeze from hushabye mountain
Softly blows o'er lullaby bay
It fills the sails of boats that are waiting
Waiting to sail your worries away


It isn't far to hushabye mountain
And your boat waits down by the key
The winds of night so softly are sighing
Soon they will fly your troubles to sea


So close your eyes on hushabye mountain
Wave goodbye to cares of the day
And watch your boat from Hushabye Mountain
Sail far away from lullaby bay
