"The Taliban Song"
(Scotty Emerick / Toby Keith)

I'm just a middle-aged
Middle-eastern, camel-herdin' man
I got a little two-bedroom cave
Here in North Afghanistan

Things used to be real nice
And they got out of hand since they moved in
They call themselves 'The Taliban'
Ooh, ooh, The Taliban, baby

Now, I ain't seen my wife's face
Since they came here
They make her wear a scarf over her head
That covers her from ear to ear

She loves the desert and the hot white sand
But man she's just like me
No, she can't stand The Taliban
Ooh, ooh, The Taliban, baby

But you know someday soon
We're both gonna saddle up and it'll be ride camel ride
My old lady, she'll be here with me
Just smilin' right by my side

We should do just fine out around Palestine
Or maybe Turkmenistan
We'll bid a fair adieu and flip the finger to
The Taliban

I know where you're coming from brother
This is a patriotic love song
So y'all feel free to salute if you want to
I'll give you permission

Now, they attacked New York City
'Cause they thought they could win
Said they would stand and fight
Until the very bloody end

Mr. Bush got on the phone with Iraq and Iran
And said, now you sons-of-bitches
You better not be doing any business
With that Taliban

So we prayed to Allah
With all of our might
Until those big U.S. jets
Came flying in one night

And they dropped little bombs
All over their holy land
Man you should have seen them
Run like rabbits they ran, The Taliban

But you know someday soon
We're both gonna saddle up and it'll be ride camel ride
My old lady she'll be here with me
Just smilin' right by my side

We should do just fine out around Palestine
Or maybe Turkmenistan
We'll bid a fair adieu and flip a couple fingers to
The Taliban
And we'll bid a fair adieu and give a big bone or two to
The Taliban, Taliban
