road to morocco

• bing crosby'nin başrolde olduğu 1942 tarihli david butler filmi ve bu filme ismini veren victor young imzalı unutulmaz şarkı. crosby dışında bob hope ve dorothy lamour da filmde rol almışlardır. tam ismi "(we're off on the) road to morocco" olan şarkı ise, crosby ile hope'un bir deve üstünde giderken seslendirdikleri düet şeklindedir. şarkıda ömer hayyam'a da referans vardır. bu şarkının crosby tarafından solo seslendirilen versiyonunun sözleri ise daha farklıdır. şarkının filmdeki sözleri şöyledir;
  
  we're off on the road to morocco
  this taxi is tough on the spine (hit me with a band-aid, dad)
  where they're goin', why we're goin', how can we be sure
  i'll lay you eight to five that we'll meet dorothy lamour (yeah, get in line)
  
  off on the road to morocco
  hang on till the end of the line (i like your jockey. quiet)
  i hear this country's where they do the dance of the seven veils
  we'd tell you more (uh-ah) but we would have the censor on our tails (good boy)
  
  we certainly do get around
  like webster's dictionary we're morocco bound
  
  we're off on the road to morocco
  well look out, well clear the way, 'cause here we come
  stand by for a concussion
  the men eat fire, sleep on nails and saw their wives in half
  it seems to me there should be easier ways to get a laugh
  (shall i slip on my big shoes?)
  
  off on the road to morocco
  hooray! well blow a horn, everybody duck
  yeah. it's a green light, come on boys
  
  we run into villians but we haven't any fears
  paramount will protect us cause we're signed for five more years(yeah)
  certainly do get around
  like webster's dictionary we're morocco bound
  
  we certainly do get around
  like a complete set of shakespeare that you get
  in the corner drugstore for a dollar ninety-eight
  we're morocco bound
  
  or, like a volume of omar khayyam that you buy in the
  department store at christmas time for your cousin julia
  we're morocco bound
  (we could be arrested)
