Originally by The Clash
Now the king told the boogie men
You have to let that raga drop
The oil down the the desert way
Has been shakin to the top
The sheik he drove his Cadillac
He went a cruisin down the ville
The muezzin was a standing
On the radiator grille
Chorus:
The shareef dont like it
Rockin the Casbah
Rock the Casbah
The shareef dont like it
Rockin the Casbah
Rock the Casbah
By order of the prophet
We ban that boogie sound
Degenrate the faithful
With that crazy Casbah sound
But the Bedouin they brought out
The electric camel drum
The local guitar picker
Got his guitar picking thumb
As soon as the shareef
Had cleared the square
They began to wail
The shareef dont like it
Rockin the Casbah
Rock the Casbah
The shareef dont like it
Rockin the Casbah
Rock the Casbah
Now over at the temple
Oh They really pack m in
The in crowd say its cool
To dig this chanting thing
But as the wind changed direction
The templeband took five
The crowd caught a wiff
Of that crazy Casbah jive
The shareef dont like it
Rockin the Casbah
Rock the Casbah
The shareef dont like it
Rockin the Casbah
Rock the Casbah
The king called up his jet fighters
He said you better earn your pay
Drop your bombs between the minaretes
Down the Casbah way
As soon as the shareef was
Chauffeured outta there
The jet pilots tuned to
The cockpit radio blare
As soon as the shareef was
Outta their heir
The jet pilots wailed
The shareef dont like it
Rockin the Casbah
Rock the Casbah
The shareef dont like it
Rockin the Casbah
Rock the Casbah...
