The Ride To Agadir Lyrics

We rode in the morning
Casablanca to the west
On the Atlas mountain foothills
Leading down to Marakesh

For Mohammed and Marocco
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
We were sharpening the blades
We 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

We will suffer no intrusion
From the infidels of France

We could wait no more
In the burning sands
On the ride to Agadir

Like the dogs of war
For the future of this land
On the 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 relive
Upon their godforsaken lives

We were going to relive
Upon their godforsaken lives

We could wait no more
In the burning sands
On the ride to Agadir

Like the dogs of war
For the future of this land
On the ride to Agadir

We rode in the morning
Casablanca to the west
On the Atlas mountain foothills
Leading down to Marakesh

For Mohammed and Marocco
We had taken up our guns
For the edges of our fathers
And the children of our sons

For the edges of our fathers
And the children of our sons
