Written By: David Nichtern
Vocal by: Maria Muldaur

1st VERSE:
      Midnight at the oasis.
      Sing your camel to bed.
      Shadows painting our faces, 
      traces romance in our heads.

2nd VERSE:
      Heaven holding a half moon.
      Shining just for us.
      Let's slip off to a sand dune real soon. 
      Kick up a little dust.

BRIDGE:
      Come out the cactus is our friend. 
      He'll point out the way.
      Come on 'till the evening ends, 
      'till the evening ends.

3rd VERSE:
      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.

4th VERSE:
      I know your daddy's a sultan.
      A nomad known to all.
      With fifty girls to attend him they all send him.
      They jump at his beck an call.

5th VERSE
      But you won't need no harem honey.
      When I am by your side.
      And you won't need no camel,
      No, no when I take you for a ride.

BRIDGE:
      Come out the cactus is our friend. 
      He'll point out the way.
      Come on 'till the evening ends, 
      'till the evening ends.

6th VERSE:  (Same as first)
      Midnight at the oasis.
      Sing your camel to bed.
      Shadows painting our faces, 
      traces romance in our heads.
