Everything you wanted to know about Ahab & Jezebel Ahab... Let me tell you about Ahab the Arab The sheik of the burning sand He had emeralds and rubies just drippin' off 'a him And a ring on every finger of his hand He wore a big ol' turban wrapped around his head And a scimitar by his side And, every evenin', about midnight He'd jump on his camel named Clyde, and ride Silently through the night to the sultan's tent where he Would secretly meet up with Fatima of the Seven Veils, Swingingest grade "A" number one US choice dancer in The sultan's whole harem, 'cause, heh, him and her had A thing goin', you know, and they'd been carryin' on For some time now behind the sultan's back and you Could hear him talk to his camel as he rode out across the Dunes, his voice would cut through the still night desert Air and he'd say (imitate Arabic speech and finish with "Sold! American) Which is Arabic for, "Stop, Clyde!" and Clyde'd say, (imitate camel sound), Which is camel for, "What the heck did he say anyway?" Well, he brought that camel to a screechin' halt (verbal screeching sound) In the rear of Fatima's tent Jumped off Clyde, snuck around the corner And into the tent he went. There he saw Fatima layin' on a zebra skin rug with... "Rings on her fingers and Bells on her toes and a bone in her nose ho, ho." There she was, friends, lyin' there in all her radiant Beauty, eating on a raisin, grape, apricot, pomegranate, Bowl of chittlin's, two bananas, three Hershey bars, Sipping on a RC co-cola listenin' to her transistor, Watchin' the Grand Ole Opry on the tube, readin' a Mad Magazine while she sung, "Does your chewing gum lose It's flavor?" Yeah, Ahab walked up to her and he say, (imitate Arabic speech), which is Arabic for "Let's twist Again like we did last summer, baby.!!" Ha, ha, ha!! You know what I mean! Whew! She looked up at him from off the rug, Give him one of the sly looks, She said (suggestive giggles, then outright laughter) "Crazy, crazy, crazy baby!" Yeah, and that's the story 'bout Ahab the Arab The sheik of the burnin' sand Ahab the Arab, the swingin' sheik of the burnin' sand Source: LyricFind Songwriters: Ray Stevens Ahab, The Arab lyrics © Concord Music Publishing LLC Jezebel... Song by Frankie Laine LyricsVideosArtists Jezebel, Jezebel If ever the devil was born without a pair of horns It was you, Jezebel, it was you If ever an angel fell, Jezebel, it was you Jezebel, it was you If ever a pair of eyes promised paradise Deceiving me, grieving me, leavin' me blue Jezebel, it was you If ever the devil's plan was made to torment man It was you, Jezebel, it was you Could be better that I never know a lover such as you Forsaking dreams and all for the siren call of your arms Like a demon, love possessed me, you obsessed me constantly What evil star is mine, that my fate's design should be Jezebel? If ever a pair of eyes promised paradise Deceiving me, grieving me, leavin' me blue Jezebel, it was you If ever the devil's plan was made to torment man It was you, Jezebel, it was you, night and day, every way Jezebel, Jezebel, Jezebel!

I remember Frankie Lane singing that song, that was some years ago and it was very popular back then. Thanks for posting the words, they refreshed my memory.

WOW, songs from the past! Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

I never heard Frankie Lane sing Jezebelle. I looked it up as released in 1955. In 1955 we junior high students were listening to Rock Around the Clock by Bill Haley and The Comets Only You and The great Pretender by the Platters Johny Cash with his new style. Rock and Roll changed music away from the old stuff in 1955.
