Araby Songtext
von Kevin Coyne

Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba
Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba

I want to take a trip to Araby
I want to take a trip to Araby
I want to see that sun on sand on, on, on the maiden′s knee

Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba
Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba

I want to ride in a big bronze butterfly
I want to ride in a big bronze butterfly
See the sun, sun in a great big blue Arabian sky


Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba
Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba

I want to go where white men never go, now
I want to go, now, where white men never go
I want to see the natives dancin' their ho-de-ho, now

Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba
Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba
Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba
Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba

I want to take my trip to Araby
I want to take my trip to Araby
Ar-ar-ar-ar-ar-ar-ar-ar-araby


Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba
Shoo-ba, shoo-ba, shoo-ba-shoo-ba-shoo-ba
