Jack Can I Ride

(album: Tumble Bee - 2011)

Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh

I asked my momma for fifty cents
To see the elephant jump the fence
He jumped so high that he reached the sky
Couldn't get back till next July

Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh

I asked my momma for five cents more
To see the elephant climb the door
He jumped so low that he stubbed his toe
That was the end of the elephant show

Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh

Jaybird sitting on a swinging limb
Winked at me and I winked at him
Picked up a stick and hit me on the shin
Lord, hey bird, don't you do that again

Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh

Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
