The Sheik Of R&B
(专辑: #1 With A Bullet - 1989)
Well now there was a
sheik from Saudi Had a
Rolls and two Ferraris And a
harem that would please any man Oh yeah A
palace I
am told Just loaded with gold A
hundred thousand acre farm in Sudan Oh, wells pumping every day and night But he wasn't satisfied with his material life Something was missing, he was so confused And then he started digging Rhythm and Blues Yeah one night by accident Out of a
US Army tent He heard a
strange new, jumping beat Oh, it was pleasantly disturbing And it moved him from his turban To the
sandals on his feet Ray Charles, B.B. King, and Bob Edgar Ran James Brown and Bo Diddly and Desi Anderson He said at last, "I found my destiny Yeah, I'll be the
Sheik of R&B" Now he's the
Sheik of R&B The
rhythm and blues king of all Arabee Oh he's as cool as an oasis Hotter than the
sun He's a
camel kicking guitar picking son-of-a-gun! Yeah! You just got to see The
Sheik of R&B Now during the
Embargo He took off for Chicago Just the
city to play some blues, yeah He rented out the
Hyatt Then decided he'd just buy it Parked his camels all down the
loop Now he's in the
Windy City on the
south side of town Playing that guitar and really getting down You just got to see The
Sheik of R&B Now he's the
Sheik of R&B He's the
rhythm and blues king of all Arabee Oh he's as cool as an oasis Hotter than the
desert sun He's a
camel kicking guitar picking son-of-a-gun! Yeah! You just got to see The
Sheik of R&B You just got to see The
Sheik of R&B Yeah! Yow! You're too cool, Abdul!
