Took me a while but I found the CD at Vintage Vinyl in St Louis.
The other night,
I was walking down the street
I was gettin kind of hungry,
I decided to get me something to eat
Now I passed up all the chain franchise joints on hamburger row
And stopped at a little greasy spoon where I always eat at called "EATS"
Sit n' gulp
Get you one of those greasy hamburgers all peppered up
Lay you up in the hospital for ten days
So I ordered of couple o' them grease bombs,
Waitress brought 'em over
I lifted up the bun - damn! - no ketchup
So I nudged the fella sittin next to me and I said,
“Hey partner, how bout passing the ketchup over?”
Suddenly this little bitty green hand holding a ketchup bottle came into view
And I freaked
Cause the guy sittin next to me
WAS A MARTIAN!
Now in forty years of eating hamburgers
I aint never run into no Martian
Not at two thirty in the morning and
Certainly not in a fine scarfin' establishment like EATS
Well he was sittin over there with a bunch of colored sticks on his plate
And I looked over at him and I said, "What you eatin there, boy...crayons?"
And he said, "Why no, they're Martian cigarettes. Try one."
Well about half hour later
he looked over at me and smiled
Them old Martians ain't got but two teeth in their head
And he said "How do you feel?"
And I said
Wellllllllllllllll
I feel,
So good,
Yeah I do
Gonna boogie
Till the break of day
Got the Neptune shuffle
And the Pluto blues
Don't nobody boogie
Like us Martians do
Gonna boogie
Gonna boogie
We're gonna boogie
Till the break of day
Meanwhile, Back at Eats
I was still thinking
I said how come out of all places you could have landed you ended up here
He said, "According to my lunar space map
This place here
Is supposed to be
The Boogie Capital of the USA!'
So I asked him, I said, "Now where else you been, boy?”
And he told me.
He said,
I rocked em over and I rocked em down
Rocked in the country and I rocked em in town
Rocked in Memphis at fourth and main
Up walked a lady and she asked me my name
Told her my name was on the tail of my shirt
Said a party town Martian don't have to work
Well I feel so good
Gonna boogie
Till the break of day
Martian boogie!
Boogie woogie!
