The ram who shot Mokhtar Fadl

When Mokhtar Fadl came to town the ewes they all would hide
they'd hide
When Mokhtar Fadl walked around, the rams would step aside
Because the shepherds gun was the only law that Mohktar understood
When it came to shooting straight and fast
Mohktar was mighty good.

From out of the east a new ram , his horns as hard as rock
a ram
The kind of ram Egypt would need to ease a troubled flock
Because the shepherds gun was the only law that Mohktar understood
When it came to shooting straight and fast
Mohktar was mighty good.

Many a sheep would face his gun and many a sheep would fall
The ram who shot Mokhtar Fadl ; he shot Mokhtar Fadl
he was the bravest of them all.

Now the love of a ewe can make a ram stay on when he should go
stay on
Just trying to build a peaceful life where sheep are free to go
Because the shepherds gun was the only law that Mohktar understood
When it came to shooting straight and fast
Mohktar was mighty good.

Afraid on the hill, the sheep all prayed; that he'd die some fateful night
that night
So nothing they said could keep that ram from going out to fight
Because the shepherds gun was the only law that Mohktar understood
when the final showdown came to pass
that ram he sure could shoot.

Out in the dark two shots rang out ;the shots made Mokhtar fall
The ram who shot Mokhtar Fadl;he shot Mokhtar Fadl
he was the bravest of them all.
