The Taliban Song Songtext
von Toby Keith

We call it "The Taliban Song"

Everybody snap your fingers, c′mon

Check it out

I'm just a middle-aged, middle-eastern camel herdin′ man
And I got a little two-bedroom cave here in North Afghanistan
Things used to be real nice and they got out of hand since they moved in
They call themselves the Taliban
Ooh, yeah, the Taliban
Singin', ooh, the Taliban, baby
Oh, yeah

Now I ain't seen my wife′s face since they came here
They make her wear a scarf over her head that covers her from ear to ear
She loves the desert and the hot, white sand
But man, she′s just like me, nah, she can't stand
The Taliban (ooh, the Taliban, baby)


But you know, someday soon we′re both gonna saddle up
And it'll be, ride, camel, ride
My old lady, she′ll be here with me, just smilin' right by my side
We should do just fine out around Palestine or maybe Turkmenistan
We′ll bid a fair adieu and flip the finger to the Taliban

I know where you comin' from, brother
This is a patriotic love song
So y'all feel free to salute if you want to
I give you permission

Now they attacked New York City ′cause they thought they could win
Said they would stand and fight until the very bloody end
Mr. Bush got on the phone with Iraq and Iran, and said
"Now, you sons-of-bitches, you better not be doin′ any business with the Taliban"

So we prayed to Allah with all of our might
Until those big U.S. jets came flyin' one night
They dropped little bombs all over their holy land
Man, you should have seen ′em run, like rabbits, they ran
The Taliban

You know someday soon we're both gonna saddle up
And it′ll be ride, camel, ride
My old lady, she'll be here with me, just smilin′ right by my side
We should do just fine out around Palestine or maybe Turkmenistan
We'll bid a fair adieu and flip a couple fingers to the Taliban
We'll bid a fair adieu and give a big boner to the Taliban


Taliban

Whoo, y′all′s patriotic now
