Burl Ives - Buckeye Jim Lyrics

Way down yonder in a hollow log
A jaybird danced with an ol' bullfrog.

Chorus: Buck-eyed Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go
Buck-eyed Jim

Way up yonder above the moon
A jaybird lived in a silver spoon.

Way down yonder in a wooden trough
An old woman died of the whoopin' cough.

Way up yonder above the sky
A jaybird spit in a bluebird's eye.
