The Lyrics

Does Barry Manilow know you raid his lyrics?
His name was Luke, he - he was farm boy
With Jawas selling broken droids, uncle Owen was annoyed
He would be waiting, just one more season
With the double setting stars
Ben was never very far
Across the desert sand, an isolated man
With the princess begging for help
Who could fly them there?

[Chorus]
On Tatooine...at the Cantina
Where Mos Eisley scum make the scene-a
On Tatooine...at the Cantin-a
Smugglers and pilots and crazy space pirates
The Cantina...they found their guy

His name was Solo
He flew the Falcon
Ben and Luke were there, Cantina Song was in the air
And when they finished, someone came over
Greedo's spikey little head
Wants Han Solo live or dead
then there were blaster bursts - someone would get the worst
There were flashes from two gun shots
But just who shot first?

[Chorus]
On Tatooine...at the Cantina
Where Mos Eisley scum make the scene-a
On Tatooine...at the Cantin-a
Smugglers and pilots and crazy space pirates
We don't serve their kind (your droids...they'll have to wait outside)

His name is Luke, yes - he was a Jedi
Now he is back in his home land, only minus his right hand
Slamming drinks down - at the cantina
Telling stories from back then
With the Jedi ghost of Ben
I'm trying to be kind, I wish we could rewind
to before Disney took it over
and it all declined!

[Chorus]

Despite the theme being similar to a song I've heard on dr demento, this was very original

Oops, you are right. Between them and the big 'Y' , pretty much everything has been done. Still never enough Star Wars parodies on this site...
