marrakesh express Songtext / Lyric

Looking at the world through the sunset in your eyes
Traveling the train through clear Moroccan skies-
Ducks and pigs and chicken 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

Don't you know we're riding on th eMarrakesh Express
Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh
Expressly taking me to Marrakesh
They're taking me to Marrakesh
All aboard the train-

I've been savin'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 mouth
Colored cottons hang in the air, charming cobras in the square, striped djellebas we can wear at home
Let me hear you now-

Don't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express
Don't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express
They're taking me to Marrakesh
All on board the train
All on board.
