text: When you hear sweet syncopation
  And the music softly moans
  Taint no sin to take off your skin
  And dance around in your bones
  When it gets too hot for comfort
  And you cant get an ice cream cone
  Taint no sin to take off your skin
  And dance around in your bones
  Just like those bamboo babies
  Down in the South Sea tropic zone
  Taint no sin to take off your skin
  And dance around in your bones
  When you hear sweet syncopation
  And the music softly moans
  Taint no sin to take off your skin
  And dance around in your boness
  When it gets too hot for comfort
  And you cant get an ice cream cone
  Taint no sin to take off your skin
  And dance around in your bones
  Just like those bamboo babies
  Down in the South Sea tropic zone
  Taint no sin to take off your skin
  And dance around in your bones
