(intro)
(intro)
>shofar horns, fanfare> spot on me

I don't drink Whisk
I aint no hump
Got a cobra in my hat
I'm the Lord of the Nile

Dont mess with my sand
unless you wanna be Sphinxed
got a mummy in my tummy
and I don't speak Greek
so if you're a croc
I'll twist your dial
I'll wrap your ass in linen by the mile
I'll make you hoe
I'll make you gimp
I'll give you a jewel that's shaped like a bug

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA???
(chorus
ooKAH ooKAH OOkah ooKAH ookah HOOKA > repeat)
ZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!
(chorus)

Got me a pyramid flies through space
Got me a Zippo in my hand
Got me a buncha slaves kick your face
Gimme a shake I give you a brand
(chorus)

jaffa?
KREEE
jaffa-
KREEEEEEE
JAFFA!
KREEEEEEEEEEEE!
don't you lay no Tauree on me!

>segue into drum solo bass ta ta ta TUMP ta ta ta TUMP repeat
>naked gold painted bald babes march line abreast across stage like an Egyptian
"Apophis and Jaffar exit stage left and right
>naked babes about face, march
>Apophis runs from dark in front of stage, does scissor up onto stage
JAFFA KREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee......
>Jaffa who have sneaked in front of stage lit up by stage spots, spray yellow water on crowd from staffs

I’m looking for a late 70’s rock song however it could be early eighties. I remember it was playing on the radio around the same time as Sammy Hagars “Plain Jane”. I don’t know the artist or title but here’s a portion of the words and chorus;

Must be fate we ran into each other,
even though you came here with another,
I don’t mind,

‘cause there’s still the night to
steal away, lose your shadow, baby steal away,
leave him home, find a reason, baby steal away

Back on topic- So this song isn't familair to anybody?

 

[227]

Well I sent a blanket email to the DJ's from KLOS and no one got back to me. I'm not even sure they got it as the email had to be forwarded through the station manager. If any one has any search ideas for hard to find music I'd be really appreciative.

It's not this tune is it?



It was done in 2002 and is pretty heavy stuff.

I found a song by Tommy Tutone (anyone know "867 5309") called "Steal Away" which came out in the early 80s. I cannot find the lyrics though! Have a look on Amazon and see if the first 30 seconds of the song brings back any memories. The lyrics don't seem to suggest it's that song, but I'm not sure cause I don't know it.

I just found another song called Steal Away by Whitesnake not sure when it was done here's the video:



I found this song by Billy Crawford and a video:



And other track called Steal Away from Bobbie Gentry.

There seems to be lots of songs out there called Steal Away, so perhaps the changes of your song bring called that are great.

CP/M user thanks for the leads, however none of those songs are the one I'm looking for. I've searched You Tube already and have found it to be very helpful in locating OTHER songs I was looking for but I did not found THIS song on there. Thanks for your efforts anyway.

Magic, thanks for the search tips. I actually know the tune to the song so the hum website might be useful. This song is proving to be a very rare and hard to find song. Its kind of become a quest for me. Somebody out there has to know the song and or even have it in there record collection, I just have to find them.

Thanks again everybody for your tips and help

I still haven't found the song so I thought I'd bump the thread in case any new readers can help. Thanks again every one for your suggestions

UPDATE!!!! I found the song!!! The title IS "Steal Away". The Artist is Nils Lofgren and its the fifth track on the Album titled "Nils" which was released in 1979. Here’s the link if any one wants to listen to a sample.
