Sheik Of Araby
from HIT SINGLE! by Hobbit & Hare
about
Hailing back to the roaring 20's, this tune has been a favorite of Hobbit's since he first heard Leon Redbone cover it. He's recorded it once before as a solo, but likes this duet version much better!
lyrics
LYRICS
I'm the Sheik of Araby,
Your love belongs to me.
At night when you're asleep,
Into your tent I'll creep.
The stars that shine above,
Will light our way to love.
You'll rule these sands with me,
The Sheik of Araby.
I'm the Sheik of Araby,
Your love belongs to me.
At night when you're asleep,
Into your tent I'll creep.
The stars that shine above,
Will light our way to love.
You'll rule these sands with me,
The Sheik of Araby.
