MIDNIGHT AT THE OASIS 

 Maria Muldaur 

 (David Nichtern) 

  

  

 Midnight at the oasis 

 Send your camel to bed 

 Shadows paintin' our faces 

 Traces of romance in our heads 

 Heaven's holdin' a half-moon 

 Shinin' just for us 

 Let's slip off to a sand dune, real soon 

 And kick up a little dust 

 Come on, Cactus is our friend 

 He'll point out the way 

 Come on, till the evenin' ends 

 Till the evenin' ends 

 You don't have to answer 

 There's no need to speak 

 I'll be your belly dancer, prancer 

 And you can be my sheik 

 ------ guitar solo ------ 

 I know your Daddy's a sultan 

 A nomad known to all 

 With fifty girls to attend him, they all send him 

 Jump at his beck and call 

 But you won't need no harem, honey 

 When I'm by your side 

 And you won't need no camel, no no 

 When I take you for a ride 

 Come on, Cactus is our friend 

 He'll point out the way 

 Come on, till the evenin' ends 

 Till the evenin' ends 

 Midnight at the oasis 

 Send your camel to bed 

 Got shadows paintin' our faces 

 And traces of romance in our heads
