Young man in Morocco Buys a diamond ring Takes it across the water Just to see what luck it brings Young girl dressed in midnight Sets his blood on fire You can't buy my soul with gold But my heart is up for hire I can't shake it, I can't shake it, I can't shake it, I just can't shake it Drivin' in your Fleetwood To the sports of kings today Top hat cane and ascot That's the game you play Jumpin' from a window Shirt half off your back Better take the elevator And find another track I can't shake it, I can't shake it, I can't shake it, I just can't shake it I gotta a monkey on my back And I just can't shake it
