Midnight
at the Oasis
Written by David Nichtern Singer: Maria Muldaur
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
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
Shadows paintin' our faces
Traces of romance in our heads
Oh, come on
Oh come on
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
