Okay, we all have heard this one and have always wondered what really are they saying.

Well, released in 1982,The Clash, Rock the Casba, has been heard as rock the cash box, rock the cat box, etc...

Too funny I would say.

Well, Cashba is walled areas in many North African towns and The Shereef is an Arabian ruler.

You can check out some of the facts about this song on www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=1549

I did find a video on youtube from Dragonfroce742 that gives the lyrics to the song.

I like this song, but could never really understand the lyrics. So here they are
