Hank Ballard & the Midnighters

Hank Ballard (born John Henry Kendricks; November 18, 1927 – March 2, 2003) was an American singer and songwriter, the lead vocalist of The Midnighters and one of the first rock and roll artists to emerge in the early 1950s. He played an integral part in the development of the genre, releasing the hit singles "Work With Me, Annie" and answer songs "Annie Had a Baby" and "Annie's Aunt Fannie" with his Midnighters. He later wrote and originally recorded (in 1959) "The Twist" which was notably covered a year later by Chubby Checker, this second version spreading the popularity of the dance. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990. more »

I'm a spaceman
Sent from the moon
Shot off a missole
And heard this tune

Let's float, let's float
Let's float, let's float
Baby, let's float

Now lift your arms
Just like a bird
And listen for
The magic word

Let's float, oh, let's float
Let's float, let's float
Baby, let's float, hey now

Now watch those
Planets go whizzing by
Float with me
We're going up high

Let's float, oh, let's float
Let's float, let's float
Baby, let's float
Come on, baby, come on

Mercury, Mars
And Venus too
Float with me
That's the thing to do

Let's float, oh
Come on, baby, let's float
Let's float, let's float
Come on, let's float

Now my missile
Is down to earth
I'm floating for
All I'm worth

Let's float, come on now
Baby, let's float
Let's float, let's float
Baby, let's float

Come on, baby, let's go
Let's float, come on, baby
Let's float, woo

Let's float, let's float
Let's float, let's float
Baby, let's float

Let's float
Raise your hands high
Let's float
Come on, real high
