Archie Archer, the astronaut
spent his entire life for naught
he drank a lot, and fought
many troubles he brought
and friends or pals he had not
he was rough and he was hard
and i don't know whether he was right
but just one sunny day
he left his home and kin and went away
to look for his own star
and he long flew away,
he flew away,
he flew away--TO INFINITY AND BEYOND!
to the pale flickering light
to the snow-like melting time
to the infinite world,
where even death is like alcohol
crystal clear and pure
when i stare at the moon and the stars
through my very own spyglass
i choke on my wine
regretting that I
never became an astronaught
cause i'd long fly away
i'd long fly away
i'd long fly away
TO INFINITY AND BEYOND!

а так-то всё нормально, ты же рубрику указал... у них эта вещь тоже балладная (мне так кажется), но твой перевод балладистей)
