Rock the Casbah - Bob Clearmountain Mix
Now, the king, he told the boogie men You have to let that raga drop The oil down the desert way Has been shaken 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
Sharif don't like it Rocking the Casbah Rock the Casbah Sharif don't like it Rocking the Casbah Rock the Casbah
By order of The Prophet Ban that boogie sound Degenerate, unfaithful With that crazy Casbah sound
The Bedouin they brought out The electric kettle drum The local guitar picker Got his guitar picking thumb As soon as the sharif Had cleared the square They began to wail
Sharif don't like it Rocking the Casbah Rock the Casbah Sharif don't like it Rocking 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
Sharif don't like it Rocking the Casbah Rock the Casbah Sharif don't like it Rocking 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 sharif Was chauffeured outta there The jet pilots tuned to The cockpit radio blare As soon as the sharif Was outta their hair The jet pilots wailed
Sharif don't like it Rocking the Casbah Rock the Casbah Sharif don't like it Rocking the Casbah Rock the Casbah
Sharif don't like it (He thinks it's not kosher) Rocking the Casbah Rock the Casbah
Sharif don't like it (Fundamentally can't take it) Rocking the Casbah Rock the Casbah
Sharif don't like it (You know he really hates it) Rocking the Casbah Rock the Casbah
