Shiek Yousseff, poses as a friend of the French while secretly plotting to overthrow them. Apposing Yousseff are the Riffs, whose secret leader, The Red Shadow, is Paul Bonnard, a professor who is studying the desert, and whose attacks on the supply trains intended for Yousseff keep the Riff villages in food. Foreign Legion General Birabeau arrives to conduct an investigation, accompanied by his daughter, Margot. Birabeau hires Bonnard to tutor her, and she is attracted to a Legionaire captain, Claud Fontaine. While the general, Bonnard and Fontaine pay a visit to Yousseff, an American newspaper man, Benji Kidd, discovers a secret way in and out of Yousseff's palace, with the aid of Azuri, a dancing girl in love with Bonnard. The latter is forced to resume his role as the Riffs leader, and kidnap Margot until he can convince her of Yousseff's treachery.

Joy Ride Lyrics: It's getting close to sundown / Over the Sierra / Stranded on the heat wave. Play This Song. The desert wind is howling. Jump in a vehicle and get ready for a wild Desert Joyride. Race against other vehicles in an epic battle for desert dominance. Or you can choose to take a slower.
But Yousseff's men attack the Riff camp and take Margot prisoner. TriviaPractically all of the lyrics for 'The Riff Song' have been rewritten, even the words that did not have to be changed. This was common practice in several Broadway musical adaptations made before 1955; it was done frequently in the - operettas and it was done in the 1954 film version of 'The Student Prince'. Movie studios did this so that royalties from all sales of sheet music for the film versions would go to the studios that made the films, not to the original lyricists. Exceptions included the 1936 film version of 'Show Boat' and all of the songs except 'Cotton Blossom' in the 1951 'Show Boat', as well as the 1943 film version of 'Girl Crazy'. Though it seems many criticize this in comparison with the stage play, I have always been in love with this movie version.
The characters are fun (especially Benjy), the music is heavenly (I could sing it all day!), and the plot is nonstop action. I look at the play and this movie almost as two different shows completely, since there are, admittedly, many differences. Here, Margot is the general's daughter (as opposed to his child being the Red Shadow/El Khobar). Pierre is now Paul.

Captain Fontaine's first name is Claude. Benjamin Kidd's nickname is now Benjy instead of Bennie, and his secretary Susan is absent.
And there's an evil sheik, making two different foes for the Riffs: The Legionaires and the sheik and his men. All in all, I find the movie quite satisfying.
