The Last Camel Died Before Noon © words and music by C. Stewart ( Nov. 7, 2005 )
Fat belly dancers had me cornered In an old saloon Where they had their way with me Until the first of june
Big ugly had me duct taped Crushed me like a grape But I kept trying desperately And finally escaped
CHORUS.... The only way out of town, was on a camels back I gathered up my valuables, and stuffed em in a sack Filled me up some water jugs, I knew the road was dry Thats when I found out, all the camels died " No way out, no way out " Cause, the last camel died before noon
I'm knee deep in the desert My shovel is a spoon I've got to find my way home I hope that it's real soon
Sandy dunes and pyramids Which way should I go The sun is playin' tricks on me I think I see some snow
CHORUS.... The only way out of town, was on a camels back I gathered up my valuables, and stuffed em in a sack Filled me up some water jugs, I knew the road was dry Thats when I found out, all the camels died " No way out, no way out " ( F-C-Dm ) Cause, the last camel died before noon
BRIDGE... I see a blue oasis Girls with pretty faces My hand is full of aces.....who am I kidding

I don't know what to say to try and help you out of this mess.....Such a shame......Getting caught like that.
The only thing I can think of is you should call Ritt and he'll come over and pick you up in a cab.....I know the fare will be high but you'll just have to live with it.
Those oasis visions will just drive ya nuts and well, we wouldn't want that to happen would we?
Have fun this is just too cute!

Hi Calvin, Now "there" is a title that I doubt has been used. Looked good to me. I wanted the last C line to rhyme with something If you haven't got music or if it's not finalized, a possibility might be something like-------------------------------------------- No way out, no way out, doom" Cause, the last camel died before noon------- ------------------------------- You may like it just as is though. Good writing More coffee Wy

Hey Calvin

Hello again Calvin
Must have been before I was on board so it is fresh to my eyes. I'm impressed with your organizational skills to be able to find it to post.
this is my favorite part..... the snow is up my way ! jm
