Egyptian Ella Songtext
von Fatima Spar und die Freedom Fries

When the first sweet notes of the music sound
The boys all gather from miles around
Just to see Egyptian Ella

And folks all know when those caravans
Start pouring in from desert sands
That it must be Egyptian Ella

Then Mister Sphinx sits up and blinks
There′s so much to see
She squirms and shakes so the worms and snakes
All bite themselves with jealousy


She's a great big gal in a great big land
And the boys all give her a great big hand
How they love Egyptian Ella


The boys hang a round but she plainly states
She doesn′t care a fig about dates
And they can't make Egyptian Ella
A sheik tried to kidnap her once I'm told
But she shook so much that he lost his hold
He couldn′t hold Egyptian Ella
So the Pasha wrote her a royal note
With his royal fist
It said because of the dance she does
She′s in his royal waiting list
And that's how fame of a different sort
Has come at last from an indoor sport
To our own Egyptian Ella
