Song of the Hambobao (Hamburger)

On the bus from Gyantse back tho Lhasa, there was a song on the cassette that kept coming round. As often happens when listening to another language, the words seemed to take on a meaning of their own, in my brain. (Bear in mind that I had already learned that "Hambobao" is "Hamburger" in Chinese.)
The song's chorus seemed to run thus:
Maaake meee a hambobao;
Jeeelllyyyy [jelly] in me hambobao;
Why hail a logger man?
When a cool me hambobao.
I think I must be missing something from home...

Those words have a particular resonance and may well become famous!
I reckon - deejays and chanters making this into a dancehall hit remember copyright ok!
