Aaron Neville Space Man Lyrics

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
