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
Coloured 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 on board the train
All on board the train
All on board........
