AARON NEVILLE - SPACE MAN lyrics

( F. Caliste )

Hey la, um de hey oh la

Said, hey la, um de hey oh le

Hey, hey, hey, hey oh la

Said hey, oh hey, feelin' good today

One day as I was a havin' myself a party

You know a flyin' saucer landed right by my side

You know a big green man jumped out and boy you know he robbed me

You know he beat me for my bottle before I got high

I hittim' up knowing that I was dead

'Cause he had that big ray-gun pointed at my head

But curiosity will get the best of the best

You know he smelled that bottle and the liquor did the rest

And I said, Hey la, um de hey oh la

Hey la, um de hey oh le

Hey, hey, hey, hey oh la

Hey, oh hey, it ain't over yet

Turned that bottle up and started drinking

It was a long, long time before he pulled it away

His eyes got crossed and man his knees started wobblin'

He took four steps forward and this is what he said

He said, Hey la, um de hey, oh la

Hey la, um de hey, oh le

He said hey, hey, hey, hey oh la

Hey oh la, feel good today

I could see this cat was a just about to party

'Cause he had that great big green in his eye

He said come on hurry on down, let's forget our troubles

Just jump in my space hot-rod and take a little ride

So now I'm not afraid of no kind of space man

'Cause I keep my defenses by my side

And if you ever see me any place or any time

You can bet I'm a holding my bottle by my side

And I'm gonna sing Hey la, um de hey, oh la

Hey la, um de hey, oh le

Hey, hey, hey, hey oh la

Hey oh hey, I feel good today
