Subject: 'On the Road to Cairo' - song search
I've just been to Egypt by cruise. The ship radio played the above song about "the tourist trap in Cairo". As well as the stunning pyramids and museum I was struck by the accuracy of the song and now want to sing it. Digitrad has a version called "The Old Bazaar In Cairo" and a couple of old threads about it, but the one I heard definitely had the title on this thread and some new references about postcards and the tourist trap, etc. Any idea what the updated version is, who it's by, where I can find the words/a recording? I've searched the net but not come up with anything. Thanks.
