| 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.
|
| Would you know we’re riding on the Marrakesh Express?
|
| Would 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 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.
|
| Would you know we’re riding on the Marrakesh Express?
|
| Would you know we’re riding on the Marrakesh Express?
|

|
| Would you know we’re riding on the Marrakesh Express?
|
| Would 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! |
