Me and Ben Kenobi

Busted flat on Tatooine
Wishing it would rain
When I was feeling near as faded as my robe
Obi thumbed a ship down
Just before they came
To ride as all the way to Alderaan

I put on a blast helmet
And a dirty old poncho
I was fighting there while Obi used the force
Han and Chewie flyin’ high
The Empire left behind
They used every trick that they knew

Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose
Nothing, well its nothing if it ain’t free
Feeling good was easy when Ben taught the force
Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Ben Kenobi

From the remains of Alderaan to the station like a moon
Well Obi shared the secrets of the force
Through blaster fire and everything he knew
Well Obi opened up a whole new world
One day on the death star
I let him slip away
Darth Vader cut him down, and I miss him so

Well I’d trade all tomorrows for one single yesterday
To be seeing Obi’s body next to mine

Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose
Nothing, well that’s all Obi left me
Feeling good was easy when Ben taught the force
Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Ben Kenobi
