Rock the Casbah (J. Mark Andrus mix)
Now, the king told the boogie men You have to let that raga drop The oil down 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-standin' On the radiator grille
The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
By order of the prophet We ban that boogie sound Degenerate 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 don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
Now over at the temple Ooh, they really pack 'em in The in-crowd say it's cool To dig this chanting thing
But as the wind changed direction And the temple band took five Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com The crowd caught a whiff Of that crazy Casbah jive
The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah The shareef don't 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 minarets 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 hair The jet pilots wailed
The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah The shareef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
The shareef don't like it (He thinks it's not kosher) Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
The shareef don't like it (Fundamentally can't take it) Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
The shareef don't like it (You know he really hates it) Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah
