Casbah Lyrics


(Music: Pell / Lyrics: Pell)
Here I go and make my final stand,
Very far away there's the promised
Land.
The eagle came down and took me
Away,
Puts me down in a hole I can't see
The light of day.
Oohoh riding on the wings of
Wonder
Can you feel, the fire from down
Under
Oh hoho - hoho
Oh hoho - hoho
Oh hoho, dreamin' of the casbah
The wizard prays in his unbroken
Rules
With tears in his eyes for a ship of

Fools
Then we sailed away and the sun
Turned black,
We saw the eyes of the lost and
We're never comin' back.
Repeat bridge
Repeat chorus

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
