Lyrics
A spaceman came travelling on a ship from afar
To us, lightyears of time since his mission did start
And over a village he halted his craft
And it hung in the sky like a star, like a star
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
And it went
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
He followed a light and came down to a shed
Where mother and child were lyin' there on a bed
And a bright light of silver shone 'round his head
And he had the face of an angel and they were afraid
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
The stranger spoke, he said, "Do not fear
I come from a planet a long way from here
And I bring a message for mankind to hear"
And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
And it went
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
Peace and goodwill to all men
And love for the child
