I love the English-langugage Caribbean songs, they have always been ALL about double entendre:

"I asked my lady what could I do
to make her happy and to keep her true
she said my friend one thing I need from you
is a little tiny piece of the big bamboo

she wanted big bamboo four feet long
big bamboo so full and strong
big bamboo stands up straight and tall
only big bamboo pleases one and all

I bought my woman a banana plant
she said my friend this is elegant
it's much too nice to go to waste
but much too soft to suit my taste

she wanted big bamboo four feet long
big bamboo so full and strong
big bamboo stands up straight and tall
only big bamboo pleases one and all

I gave my woman a coconut
she said my friend this is OK but
if you want to get close to me
what good is the nuts without the tree

she wanted big bamboo four feet long
big bamboo so full and strong
big bamboo stands up straight and tall
only big bamboo pleases one and all

I gave my woman some sugarcane
sweetness is sweet she did explain
she handed it back to my surprise
she like the flavor but not the size!
