[00:14.93] Now the king told the boogie men

[00:18.63] You have to let that raga drop

[00:22.60] The oil down the desert way

[00:26.28] Has been shakin' to the top

[00:30.18] The sheik he drove his Cadillac

[00:33.43] He went a' cruisin' down the ville

[00:37.61] The muezzin was a' standing

[00:41.03] On the radiator grille

[00:45.24] The shareef don't like it

[00:48.88] Rockin' the Casbah

[00:50.67] Rock the Casbah

[00:52.49] The shareef don't like it

[00:56.38] Rockin' the Casbah

[00:58.27] Rock the Casbah

[00:59.82] By order of the prophet

[01:03.68] We ban that boogie sound

[01:07.39] Degenerate the faithful

[01:10.78] With that crazy Casbah sound

[01:14.71] But the Bedouin they brought out

[01:16.61] The electric camel drum

[01:18.70] The local guitar picker

[01:20.31] Got his guitar picking thumb

[01:22.23] As soon as the shareef

[01:24.27] Had cleared the square

[01:26.10] They began to wail

[01:29.81] The shareef don't like it

[01:33.48] Rockin' the Casbah

[01:35.38] Rock the Casbah

[01:37.19] The shareef don't like it

[01:40.91] Rockin' the Casbah

[01:42.75] Rock the Casbah

[01:44.60] Now over at the temple

[01:47.70] Oh! They really pack 'em in

[01:51.82] The in crowd say it's cool

[01:55.00] To dig this chanting thing

[01:58.88] But as the wind changed direction

[02:03.04] The temple band took five

[02:06.65] The crowd caught a wiff

[02:10.08] Of that crazy Casbah jive

[02:14.01] The shareef don't like it

[02:17.90] Rockin' the Casbah

[02:19.76] Rock the Casbah

[02:21.29] The shareef don't like it

[02:25.42] Rockin' the Casbah

[02:27.25] Rock the Casbah

[02:28.87] The king called out his jet fighters

[02:32.28] He said you better earn your pay

[02:35.96] Drop your bombs between the minarets

[02:39.67] Down the Casbah way

[02:43.88] As soon as the shareef was

[02:45.82] Chauffeured outta there

[02:47.67] The jet pilots tuned to

[02:49.24] The cockpit radio blare

[02:51.34] As soon as the shareef was

[02:53.41] Outta their hair

[02:55.19] The jet pilots wailed

[02:58.59] The shareef don't like it

[03:02.55] Rockin' the Casbah

[03:04.32] Rock the Casbah

[03:06.12] The shareef don't like it

[03:10.03] Rockin' the Casbah

[03:11.83] Rock the Casbah

[03:13.35] The shareef don't like it

[03:15.38] He thinks it's not kosher

[03:17.24] Rockin' the Casbah

[03:19.09] Rock the Casbah

[03:20.87] The shareef don't like it

[03:22.69] Fundamentally he can't take it

[03:24.76] Rockin' the Casbah

[03:26.58] Rock the Casbah

[03:28.18] The shareef don't like it

[03:30.03] You know he really hates it

[03:32.13] Rockin' the Casbah

[03:34.01] Rock the Casbah

[03:35.57] The shareef don't like it
