Byrds, The - Mr. Spaceman Lyrics






Woke up this morning with light in my eyes
And then realized it was still dark outside
It was a light comin'down from the sky
I don't know who or why

Must be those strangers that come every night
Whose saucers shaped light put people up tight
Leave blue green footprints that glow in the dark
I hope they get home all right

Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
I won't do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
For a ride

Woke up this mornin', I was feeling quite weird
Had flies in my beer, my tooth paste was smeared
I opened my window, they'd written my name
Said: "So long, we'll see you again".

Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
I won't do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
For a ride

Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
I won't do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
For a ride

    I'm somewhat familiar with the Byrds, but I've never heard this song before until today. It's awesome. I had no idea the Byrds had a song about aliens.

  31. D.... D....

    Pure ear candy.

  32. P.... F....

    Raulzito gênio! Pega uma musica mediana e transforma ela num clássico absoluto.

    P.... F....

    O rock brasileiro vive disso :versões e mais versões.Nenhum de Nós merecemos isso.Sepultura e Mutantes parecem que serão as únicas novidades.

    P.... F....

    A letra do Raul é reflexiva e poética. Daqueles raros casos em que a cópia é melhor que a original.

    P.... F....

    @Lindomar José Gontijo
    A letra não foi copia kkkkk até o refrão é diferente, o som do Raul é tão superior que essa banda deveria se sentir honrado pela inspiração.

    P.... F....

    Mediana? Kkkkk graças a bandas como essas, existem músicos como os que temos aqui. Raul fez uma ótima versão, mas The Byrds não é banda de músicas medianas (certamente, nem o próprio Raul devia achar isso).

    P.... F....

    @João Vitor Teles Rocha comentário mais sensato.

  33. J.... R....

    Well, of course, he had "flies in my beard", and "over my window" his name was written. Oher than that, ya got most of the words right. Thanks for the upload!

    J.... R....

    i think the words are flies in my beer not beard

    J.... R....

    @jennifur sun Nope . . it really is beard. Rhymes with weird. Heard them do it live - definitely "beard". :-)

    J.... R....

    @Jim Ryan ok thanks

  34. j.... s....

    i'm ready to leave

  35. i.... c....

    só o inicio lembra SOS de Raulzito, mas o resto não

  36. T.... 1....

    Damn I miss Grahm Parsons.

    T.... 1....

    He's not on this album, is he?

    T.... 1....

    Nope. Gram's not on this one. This song is all Roger McGuinn

  37. T.... C....

    This is the tune Elon Musk should have had playing in his Tesla Coup now forever in Orbit.!

    T.... C....

    The gold record we sent out should have had just this song, along with directions to our system.

    T.... C....

    Pahrump

    T.... C....

    Nah, Bowie is good. :)

  38. J.... ....

    This is one of their best songs. It's so good.

    A little over a year ago, I sang a cover of it. Here's the link of the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJaShs4En-w

  39. A.... D....

    always great waking up to this song

  40. J.... D....

    Just splendid!

  41. K.... M....

    Does anyone hear “American Girl” in this?

    When Roger McGuinn first heard AG, he said “When did I do this?”

    K.... M....

    Kay Muldoon not one bit.

    K.... M....

    Besides maybe the vocal harmonies in the chorus

    K.... M....

    Yes, McGuinn and The Byrds were a major influence on Tom. That's why Tom and McGuinn performed each other's songs and performed together.

  42. R.... C....

    Hola, alguien tiene la versión de los "Speakers" de Colombia de "Mr. Space Man"? Si la tiene, por favor puede subirla? Gracias de antemano.

  43. m.... k....

    m.... k....

  44. m.... ....

  45. S.... Y....

    S.... Y....

    Thanks! I do believe it's: '...woke up this morning was feeling quite queer...' Same meaning here though, pretty interchangeable

    S.... Y....

    It's had flies in my beard not beer!
