Madness - Nightboat To Cairo Lyrics



Madness - Nightboat To Cairo Lyrics




Night boat to Cairo!
It's just gone noon half past monsoon
On the banks of the river Nile
Here comes a boat only half afloat
Oarsman grins a toothless smile

Only just one more to this desolate shore
Last boat along the river Nile
Doesn't seem to care no
More wind in his hair
As he reaches his last half mile

The oar snaps in his hand
Before he reaches dry land
But the sound doesn't dampen
His smile
Just pokes the wet sand
With an oar in his hand

Floats off down the river Nile
Floats off down the river Nile

Night boat
Night boat to Cairo!
Night boat to Cairo!

Floats off down the river Nile
