I once met a little maid in Morocco
In far away old gay Morocco
We spent many happy hours together
In far away old gay Morocco
It was summer, the roses were blooming
When I found the lover divine
When I kissed a little maid in Morocco
She promised to always be mine
Then a word came one day, I must sail away
Sail away far across the sea
There were tears and there were sighs
When we kissed and said goodbyes
In far away old gay Morocco
Now a song in my heart makes me smile again
For tomorrow I sail back on the sea
And I know I soon will be with the one who waits for me
In far away old gay Morocco
