Crosby Stills & Nash Marrakesh Express
(spoken)
Whoopa, hey mesa, hooba huffa
hey meshy goosh goosh
(sung)
Looking at the world through
the sunset in your eyes
Traveling the train through
clear Moroccan skies
Ducks, and pigs, and chickens call
animal carpet wall to wall
American ladies five-foot tall in blue
Sweeping cobwebs from the edges of my mind
had to get away to see what we could find
Hope the days that lie ahead
bring us back to where they've led
listen not to what's been said to you
Wouldn't you know we're riding
on the Marrakesh Express?
Wouldn't you know we're riding
on the Marrakesh Express?
They're taking me to Marrakesh
All aboard the train
All aboard the train
I've been saving all my money
just to take you there
I smell the garden in your hair
Take the train from Casablanca going south
blowing smoke rings from the corners
of my m-m-m-m mouth
Colored cottons hang in the air
charming cobras in the square
striped djellebas we can wear at home
Well let me hear ya now
Wouldn't you know we're riding
on the Marrakesh Express?
Wouldn't you know we're riding
on the Marrakesh Express?
They're taking me to Marrakesh
Wouldn't you know we're riding
on the Marrakesh Express?
Wouldn't you know we're riding
on the Marrakesh Express?
They're taking me to Marrakesh
All aboard the train
All aboard the train
All aboard
