No we're going asian(?) in Abu Dhabi
There's men from every nation if(?) Abu Dhabi
Blow your whistle, bang on a gong
The price of oil goes up before long
They'll be getting rich and getting strong
?... together we'll fly concorde
?... all aboard
You want to go first class, you better save at last
Get to the Abu Dhabi
You want a mansion in Beverly Hills
You want a wedding with all the frills
You want daddy to pay, you better tell him today
Get to the Abu Dhabi
There's...cheek in our cheek
Trust your leaders, business men
Pass the lira, the lira and yen
The Abu Dhabi, Dhabi's here again
Fly(?) together we'll fly concorde
?... all aboard
You want to go first class, you better save at last
Get to the Abu Dhabi
You want a mansion in Beverly Hills
You want a wedding with all the frills
You want daddy to pay, you better tell him today
Get to the Abu Dhabi
.?. dum-te-dum(?) .?.
Fly(?) together, we'll fly concorde
?... all aboard
You want to go first class, you better save at last
Get to the Abu Dhabi
You want a mansion in Beverly Hills
You want a wedding with all the frills
You want daddy to pay, you better tell him today
Get to the Abu Dhabi
