O, I wish I was in the land of sand;

we're dying there to try our hand.

Look away! Look away!

Look away! From this land.

In old Baghdad it makes me glad

to see a starving Arab lad.

Look away! Look away!

Look away! From this land.

O, I wish I was in Baghdad!

Hooray! Hooray!

From Iraq 's soil we'll take their oil.

To drill and kill in Baghdad

away, away,

away down south in Baghdad !

Old Saddam wants to keep his crown

but we'll go and knock the bugger down.

Look away! Look away!

Look away! From this land.

Now we've had enough of that damn' Blix,

confound the man and his U.N. tricks

Look away! Look away!

Look away! From this land.

O, I wish I was in Baghdad!

Hooray! Hooray!

From Iraq 's soil we'll take their oil.

To drill and kill in Baghdad

away, away,

away down south in Baghdad!
