Subject: Lyr Req: Spacey, the Runaway Robot
I'm looking for the lyrics from a song circa 1958.

I'm not sure of the title, but "Spacey, the Run-a-way Robot" is as close as I can get. I heard my older sister play it on the radio in about 1958 +/- 2 years.

What I can (imperfectly?) remember is...

Spacey, the runaway robot, Lived way up-on the moon. He was made of aluminum, but he looked so humanum in his sauce pan hat, and checkerboard tie.

Zoom, Zoom, Zoom, Through space he zoomed. He didn't have a pilot, and he didn't have a crew.

But Spacey, the run a-way robot ... repeat from the top ...

Can anybody remember/get the rest/more, if there is any more?

Thanks, Jim Miller
