[Bb] [F] wake up [C] in the morning and I [F] work till late
My [Gm] skin had [C] turned brown [F] from the sun so bright
[C] [Am] At night I [C] toss and I turn in
Cause my [Ab] dreams are [F] so stoned

A bum bamboo roll, a bum bamboo [C] roll
It's [Am]
sweeter than [C] the [Bb] sugar cane, [C] a bum bamboo [F] roll
We walk [Ab] out to the campfield, a thirty [F]-five bed
At twelve o'clock they give [C] us water, then we're stacked up [F] back again
[C] At four o'clock the sun gets higher, I hear that ski [F] door slam
In the [C] big house kicks the window baby, from the campfield [F] well in
