I like it here and so do you On the one that's green and blue With everything that life requires A big hydrogen camp-fire We could be here quite a few days The next place is four light-years away When you're camping by the sun Yippee-yay-yeh, yippee-yay-yo Outer space is mighty cold Unless by chance, you have found A nice, warm star to fly around Unless you're camping by the sun Like the earth roped the moon The sun's got us in it's own lasso We're doing dishes and we're taking showers At sixty-five thousand miles and hour It makes you want to play the guitar And sing songs with Jupiter and Mars When you're camping by the sun Yippee-yay-yeh, yippee-yay-yah Outer space is very dark Unless with luck, you have found A nice, bright star to fly around Unless you're camping by the sun Yippee-yay-yeh, yippee-yay-yo Outer space is dark and cold Unless by chance, you have found A bright, warm star to fly around Unless you're camping by the sun And just before you close your eyes When the sun's on the other side You can wonder at the countless thousands The other fires and who's around them And if the sticks for their hot dogs Are ninety-eight million miles long When you're camping by the sun
