Burl Ives - Buckeye Jim lyrics

A red bird danced with a green bullfrog
Well that's what this song says
And it's called Buckeye Jim

Way up yonder above the sky
A bluebird lived in a
Jaybird's eye Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go buckeye Jim

Way up yonder above the moon
A blue jay nest in a silver spoon
Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go buckeye Jim

Way down yonder in a wooden trough
An old woman died of a whoopin' cough
Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go buckeye Jim

Way down yonder in a hollow log
A red bird danced with the green bullfrog
Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go buckeye Jim
