It Came Out Of The Sky lyrics

IT CAME OUT OF THE SKY

Oh, it came out of the sky, landed just a little South of Moline.
Jody fell out of his tractor, couldn t b lieve what he seen.
Laid on the ground and shook fearin for his life.
Then he ran all the way to town screamin it came out of the sky.

Well, a crowd gathered  round and a scientish said it was marsh gas.
Spiro came and made a speed about raising the Mars tax.
The Vatican said, woe, the Lord has come, Hollywood rushed out an epic film
and Ronnie the Popular said it was a communist plot.

Oh, the newspapers came and made Jody a national hero.
Walter and Eric said they d put him on a network TV show.
The White House said, put the thing in the Blue Room, the Vatican said,
no, it belongs to Rome
and Jody said, it s mine and you can have it for seventeen million.

Oh, it came out of the sky, landed just a little South of Moline.
Jody fell out of his tractor, couldn t b lieve what he seen.
Laid on the ground a shakin , fearin for his life.
Oh, then he ran all the way to town screamin it came out of the sky.

- John C. Fogerty
