The Kingston Trio — Banua (From the Album The Kingston Trio) lyrics

Lyrics

Won’t you come to me, baby? Won’t you bring me my bail?
For a drink and a fight on a Saturday night, they put down in the Banua jail
Banua, Banua, banua, oh! Banua, Banua, baby, I don’t know
(Hit it!)
(Once again!)
Banua, Banua, banua, oh! Banua, Banua, baby, I don’t know
(Hit it!)
(Once again!)
I didn’t mean to be fightin' and bringin' you all of this shame
But the tongue of Jonathan Brighton was scandalizin' your name
Banua, Banua, banua, oh! Banua, Banua, baby, I don’t know
(Hit it!)
(Once again!)
Banua, Banua, banua, oh! Banua, Banua, baby, I don’t know
(Hit it!)
(Once again!)
This Banua jail is cold and damp. The rats, they cover the floor
Just ten and three will set me free and I’ll be yours forever more. (Soft!)
Banua, Banua, banua, oh! Banua, Banua, baby, I don’t know
(Hit it!)
(Once again!)
Banua, Banua, banua, oh! Banua, Banua, baby, I don’t know
(Hit it!)
(Once again!)
Banua!
