They rode in the morning
|
Casablanca to the west
|
On the Atlas Mountain foothills leading down to Marakesh
|
For Mohammed and Morocco
|
We had taken up our guns
|
For the ashes of our fathers and the children of our sons.

For the ashes of our fathers and the children of our sons.
|
|
In the dry winds of summer
|
They were sharpening the blades.
|
They were riding to act upon the promise we had made.
|
With the fist and the dagger
|
With the rifle and the lance
|
We will suffer no intrusion from the Infidels of France.

Ride, ride, ride, ride to Agadir.
|
Ride, ride, ride, ride to Agadir.
|
|
They could wait no more
|
In the burning sands on the ride to Agadir.
|
|
Ride, ride, ride, ride to Agadir.
|
|
Like the dogs of war
|
For the future of this land on the ride to Agadir.
|
|
Ride, ride, ride, ride to Agadir.
|
|
Though they were waiting
|
And they were fifty to our ten
|
They were easily outnumbered by a smaller force of men.
|
As the darkness was falling
|
They were soon to realize
|
We were going to relieve them of their God-Forsaken lives.
