Lyrics
Land of flaming red flamingoes,
Land of ancient mystery,
Where the pyramids are guarding
I would be.
CHORUS:
Honeymooning each night in the moonlight,
Neath the twinkling Egyptian stars
While the palm trees sigh
And the night-birds cry,
And the Nile goes drifting by,
Honeymooning each night in the moonlight,
In the land Cleopatra knew
Paradise, dawns arise too soon,
Sweet Egyptian honeymoon.
Temple bells are softly ringing,
While the ev'ning shadows fall
Somewhere voices sweet are singing,
Hear their call.
