I am Omar Khayyam, I drink each eve,
Whose name is the world, it is mine to believe.
I am Omar Khayyam, salutations, I greet,
A fiery draught, to America, my feet.

With me, Miss Cola, laughter's delight,
I whispered to her, bathed in the light,
Oh, May Doll, your gait, a tempting art,
Those cheeks so fair, they capture my heart.
For years I've trailed, lost in your sway,
Say 'yes, yes, yes', without delay.
I am Omar Khayyam, I drink each eve,
Whose name is the world, it is mine to believe.
I am Omar Khayyam, salutations, I greet.

From a potent drink, to the graveyard I strayed,
And saw a beauty, of Iranian shade.
Come to my side, oh come to me dear,
On you, I'd lavish, and hold you so near.
Be kind, be tender, the world I'd forgo,
Come, oh come, dear one, let your spirit grow.
I am Omar Khayyam, I drink each eve,
Whose name is the world, it is mine to believe.
I am Omar Khayyam, salutations, I greet.

A heady drink, to the Congo I sped,
A colorful place, where my spirit was led.
I met Lusheela, her name like a chime,
Lusheela, Lusheela, frozen in time.
At her sight, I trembled, a serpent did bite,
Entangled, I struggled, lost in the night.
Stuck, caught, astray, jerked, jolted, thrown,
Entangled, jolted, hung, all alone.
