Good pals, blood brothers   Me and three others   Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim      Four friends, none closer   Get mad? Heck no, sir!   Not us, four-strong, a permanent team      Four guys our poundin'   The pavements of Baghdad   Poor guys with one Alabian dream      To stay this lazy   And play like crazy   Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim      True friends, no phonies   Me and my cronies   Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim      Four bums, none better   Not one go-getter   Unmontivated in the extreme      Folks say, "Hey, go earn a living in Baghdad   Grow up, go earn the city's esteem!"   We say, "Tough noogie!   No way! Let's boogie!"   Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim      Four guys out making our music in Baghdad   In Baghdad we're the creme de la creme   Okay, supporters,   Clap hands, throw quarters,   Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim      Good pals, real chummy   Whozat? Guess dummy!   Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim      Old pals, none newer,   None tried, none truer   Eight eyes with one impertinent gleam      Four guys out passing the turban in Baghdad   For lettring off some musical stream   That's our finale      'Kay guys, let's blow this alley   Babkak, Omar, Aladdin and   Howzat so far, not bad'n it's   Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim
