Starship Ride

Lyrics: Country Joe McDonald
Music: Country Joe McDonald

Jerry Garcia played acoustic guitar on Country Joe McDonald's recording. Also sung by Barry Flast and Matthew Kelley with Bob Weir on Kingfish's 1998 album Sundown On The Forest.

Oh, get your self together
Oh, leave your troubles behind
Oh, don't worry about the weather
We'll be going on a starship ride

Oh, the moon is calling
Come on pack your troubles away
Out where the stars are falling
We'll be cruising in the Milky Way

Hey, tell your mama and your papa
Don't wait up tonight
We'll bring back a little piece of heaven
When we get back from our starship ride

Oh, come on and get your self together
Hey, leave your troubles behind
Oh, don't worry about the weather
We'll be going on a starship ride

Oh, the moon is calling
Come on pack your troubles away
Out where the stars are falling
We'll be cruising in the Milky Way

Hey, tell your mama and your papa
Don't wait up tonight
We'll bring back a little piece of heaven
When we get back from our starship ride
