Looking at the world through the sun setting your eyes
Traveling the train to 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
Hide to get away to see what we can find
Hope the days that lie ahead bring us back to where they led
Listen not to what's been said to you
Won't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express
Won't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express
Take me to Marrakesh on board that train
On board that train
I've been saving all my money just to take
you there I smell the garden in your hair
The train from Casablanca going south
Blowing smoke rings from the corners of my mouth
Coloured gardens hang in the air Charming cobras in the square
Strike as you leave but it's weekend wear and all
But let me hear you now Won't you know
we're riding on the Marrakesh Express
They're taking me to Marrakesh
Won't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express
All aboard that train
All aboard that train
All aboard
