One hand on the lever and one on the chair, hey!
Well, there're too many TIEs, I can't pass, no!
So I tried my best illegal move
Well, sweetheart, Destroyers come and touched my groove again!

Gonna shoot me up, I gotta roll and dive
Post my face wanted dead or alive
Take my Falcon, all that jive
I don't have hyperdrive!

Oh no!
Uh!

So I checked my logs for nearby scoundrel friends, hey!
Yeah, Lando said, "Gotta lotta nerve...
We're gonna throw your droid in the city dump"
Looked me in the eye, said, "You got that, chump?"
I said "Yeah! Oh yeah!"

Shoot me up, I gotta roll and dive
Post my face wanted dead or alive
Take my Falcon, all that jive
I don't have hyperdrive!

Oh, yeah!

I don't have hyperdrive!
I don't have hyperdrive!
I don't have hyperdrive!
I don't have hyperdrive!

Uh!

When I fly that slow, you know it's hard to steer
And I can't get my ship outta second gear
What used to take two hours now takes all day
Huh! It took me 16 days to get to Bespin

Gonna shoot me up, I gotta roll and dive
Post my face wanted dead or alive
Take my Falcon, all that jive
I don't have hyperdrive!

No, no no
I don't have...
I don't have hyperdrive!

[repeat into oblivion]
