Rockin' in Bagdad
Over in Bagdad in the burning sand We've got a new kinda rhythm that's real cool and They put a beat to the rhythm of their ancient land Then what do they get, a crazy style And it's driving old Bagdad wild They're rockin' in Bagdad, having a ball Jumping in Bagdad, climbing the wall Bagdad's rocking tonight Doing that boogie up right They're going like mad, a-rocking in old Bagdad
A long time ago back in old Bagdad The dance of the seven veils was the fad The sultan got hip to these rhythm and blues And now he's got a pair of rocking shoes His harem is a-bopping to a boogie beat They even got the camels hopping down the street A snake charmer threw his little flute away Got a guitar now and he's learning to play Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Something's really happened in old Bagdad 'Cause they're doing that boogie And they're going like that Bagdad's rocking tonight They're doing that boogie up right They're going like mad, a-rocking in old Bagdad
Now them cats ride camels from miles around To hear this new kinda rhythm that old Bagdad found What happens when they hear this crazy mixed-up sound They start to shake, like a snake And they're making old Bagdad quake They're rockin' in Bagdad, having a ball Jumping in Bagdad, climbing the wall Bagdad's rocking tonight Doing that boogie up right They're going like mad, a-rocking in old Bagdad
