If you wanna be happy
Come along with me
Oh-oh yeah, uh-huh
I wanna hold you close
Beneath the bamboo tree
Oh-oh yeah, uh-huh
We'll take a vacation
Go away to stay
Where there'll be no work
There'll be nothin' but play
Walk down to the river
To a baby nook
Make a love like they do
In the story books
Well I wouldn't tell a story
No I would not lie
Oh-oh no, uh-huh
Gonna love you pretty baby
Till the day I die
Oh-oh yeah, uh-huh
You go home and tell your mama
Tell your papa too
Oh-oh yeah, uh-huh
That you wanna get married
'Cause your love is true
Oh-oh yeah, uh-huh
We'll take a vacation
Go away to stay
Where there'll be no work
There'll be nothin' but play
Walk down to the river
To a baby nook
And make a love like they do
In the story books
Well I wouldn't tell a story
No I would not lie
Oh-oh no, uh-huh
Gonna love you pretty baby
Till the day I die
Oh-oh yeah, uh-huh
