The Lyrics

( instrumental intro )

The storm troopers shout
'Cause they know that you're about
But they couldn't catch the glow
Of your eyes

And oh,
Who am I ?
Just an old wary Jedi
Tryin' hard to trick these
Jerks' minds


Eisley's Cantina!
See who'll take us together!
The further from this world the better!

Where they dare to wrestle free

Eisley's Cantina!
Must pay some man who will lead us!
Imperials won't impede us!

Since the Princess called to me


Now some-thing's amiss
Kenobi never looked like this
Said he felt disturbing mayhem
In the spacetime

Slowed down, from hyper-drive
As an asteroid went by
And Alderaan was gone --- none left a-live!


Eisley's Cantina!
Freaks who'd bake us with blasters!
A hundred impending disasters!

Must take care, it's time to leave!

Eisley's Cantina!
Han Solo blasted in the gut
That loan shark from
Jab-ba The Hutt!

Thug is dead though no one grieves


( -- instrumental -- )


And oh,
Who am I ?
Just an old wary Jedi
You know I'm tryin' hard to trick these
Jerks' minds!


Eisley's Cantina!
R-2's got the Death-Star plans!
Blockade runner Han Solo's our man!

Brags of Kes-sel run-ning speed!

(running speed ---
--- running speed ) Eisley's Cantina!

Take off now Fal-con, trans-port us!

Hare-ship
to
Darth Vader's
Tortoise!

'Cause Luke's sister called to me

( repeat to fade )
