SUEZ
(Words by Will Pancoast / Music by Ferdie, Peter De Rose, 1922)


In Old Suez, under mystic sky, Near the old Red Sea, where the
ships go by; There where the palm trees sway, Your lips and eyes
plead with me to stay; In

When far away, with the caravan, There I pitch my tent, on the
desert sand; Then o'er the blazing plain, I wander back love to you
again; In

Suez, wond'rous Suez, Where I was captured with your love sigh;
All day, And thru the night, To be with you I cry; When you enfold
me in your sweet loving arms I feel the thrill of all your charms,
dear; Suez, wond'rous Suez, I lost me heart to you.
