go east, young man

i'm gonna go where the desert sun is

go where i know the fun is

go where the harem girls dance

go where there's love and romance

out on the burning sands

in some caravan

i'll find adventure

while i can

to say the least

go on

go east young man

go east young man

go east young man

you'll feel like a sheik

so rich and grand

with dancing girls at your command

go eat and drink and feast

go east young man

i'm gonna go where the night's enchanted

go where those dreams are granted

when paradise starts calling

into some tent i'm crawling

i hear those desert drums

and when nighttime comes

then i'll make love the way i planned

to say the least

go on

go east young man

go east young man

go east young man

you'll feel like a sheik

so rich and grand

with dancing girls at your command

go eat and drink and feast

go east young man

go eat and drink and feast

go east young man
