Rock The Casbah Lyrics

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 Sheikh, he drove his Cadillac, he went a cruisin' down the ville
The Muezzin was a standing, on the radiator grill

Sharif don't like it
Rockin' the Casbah, Rock the Casbah
Sharif don't like it
Rockin' the Casbah, Rock the Casbah

By order of the prophet, we banned 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 Sharif, had cleared the square
They began to wail

Sharif don't like it
Rockin' the Casbah, Rock the Casbah
Sharif don't like it
Rockin' the Casbah, Rock the Casbah

Now over at the temple, oh, they really packed '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
The crowd caught a whiff, of that crazy Casbah jive

Sharif don't like itClash, The - Rock The Casbah - http://motolyrics.com/clash-the/rock-the-casbah-lyrics.html
Rockin' the Casbah, Rock the Casbah
Sharif 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 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
Rockin' the Casbah, Rock the Casbah
Sharif don't like it
Rockin' the Casbah, Rock the Casbah

Sharif don't like it
He thinks it's not kosher
Rockin' the Casbah, Rock the Casbah
Sharif don't like it
Fundamentally can't take it
Rockin' the Casbah, Rock the Casbah
Sharif don't like it
You know he really hates it
Rockin' the Casbah, Rock the Casbah
Sharif don't like it
Really, really hates it
Rockin' the Casbah, Rock the Casbah
