Buckeye Jim

Way up yonder above the moon
Bluejay rests in a silver spoon
Buckeye Jim, can't go weave or spin
Can't go, Buckeye Jim

Way up yonder above the sky
Bluejay rest in a green birds eye
Buckeye Jim, can't go weave or spin
Can't go, Buckeye Jim

They'll be an end to grief and pain
A warm bright sky beyond the rain
You don't have wings so you can't fly
But you can dream it if you try

But in Paradise the white bird sings
Touch your face with tender wings
Buckeye Jim, you'll go weave and spin
You'll go, Buckeye Jim
