Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim

Good pals, blood brothers
Me and three others
Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim

Four friends, no closer
Get mad? Heck no, sir!
Not us, four-strong, a permanent team

Four guys out poundin'
The pavements of Baghdad
Four guys with one Arabian dream

To stay this lazy
And play like crazy
Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim

True triends, no phonies
Me and my cronies
Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim

Four bums, none better
Not one go-getter
Unmotivated 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 letting off some musical steam
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!
