ROCK THE CASBAH--THE
CLASH -----------------------------
A7 Em7 Now, the
king told the boogie men,
G7 Dm7 --More--(4%) you have
to let that raga drop.
A7 Em7 The oil down the desert
way
G7 Dm7 has been shaking to the top.
A7
Em7 The sheik he drove his cadillac
G7 Dm7 he went a
cruisin down the ville.
A7 Em7 The Muezzin was a
standing
Fmaj7 On the radiator
grille.
chorus:
Dm7 A7 G7 Shareef don't like
it.
Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 A7 Rock the Casbah. Rock the
Casbah.
Dm7 A7 G7 Shareef don't like it.
Em7 Fmaj7
Em7 A7 Rock the Casbah. Rock the Casbah.
By order of
the prophet We ban 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 Shareef had cleared the
square, They began to wail.
Chorus
Now over at the
temple Oh, they really pack 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 got a
whiff Of that crazy casbah jive.
Chorus
The king
called up his jet fighters, He said, you better earn your
pay. Drop your bombs down between the minarets Down the casbah
way. As sson as the Shareef was chauffered out of there, The
jet pilote tuned to the cockpit radio blare. As soon as the
Shareef was outta their hair The jet pilots wailed.
