Bhindi Bhagee Lyrics - Singles - Joe Strummer And The Mescaleros

Well, I was walking down the high road 

And this guy stops me 

He'd just got in from New Zealand 

And he was looking for mushy peas 

I said, no, we hadn't really got 'em round here 

I said, but we do got 

 

Balti, bhindi, strictly Hindi 

Dall, halal and I'm walking down the road 

We got rocksoul, okra, Bombay duck ra 

Shrimp beansprout, comes with it or without, with it or without 

 

Bagels soft or simply harder 

Exotic avocado or toxic empenada 

We got akee, lassi, somali waccy baccy 

I'm sure back home you know 

What tikka's all about, what tikka's all about 

 

Welcome stranger to the humble neighborhoods 

You can get inspiration along the highroad 

 

Hommus, cous, cous in the jus of octopus 

Pastrami and salami and lasagne on the go 

Welcome stranger, there's no danger 

Welcome to this humble neighborhood 

 

There's balti, bhindi, strictly Hindi 

Dall, halal and I'm walking down the road 

Rocksoul, okra, Bombay duck ra 

Shrimp beansprout, comes with it or without 

 

So anyway, I told him I was in a band 

He said, "Oh yeah, oh yeah, what's your music like?" 

I said, "It's um, um, well, it's kinda like 

You know, it's got a bit of, um, you know" 

 

Ragga, bhangra, two step tanga 

Mini-cab radio, music on the go 

Um, surfbeat, backbeat, frontbeat, backseat 

There's a bunch of players and they're really letting go 

 

We got, Brit pop, hip-hop, rockabilly, lindy hop 

Gaelic heavy metal fans, fighting in the road 

Ah, Sunday boozers, for chewing gum users 

They got a crazy DJ and she's really letting go 

 

Oh, welcome stranger 

Welcome stranger to the humble neighborhoods 

 

Well, I said, "There's plenty of places to eat" 

He said, "Oh yeah, I'm pretty choosy" 

 

You got balti, bhindi, strictly Hindi 

Dall, halal, walking down the road 

Rocksoul, okra, Bombay duck ra 

Shrimp beansprout, comes with it or without 

Just check it out 

 

Welcome stranger to the humble neighborhoods 

Neighborhoods, check out all that 

 

Por da sol, por da sol 

Walking down the high road
