[Verse 1]
Way up yonder above the sky
A bluebird lived in a jaybird's eye

[Chorus]
Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go
Buckeye Jim

[Verse 2]
Way up yonder above the moon
A blue jay nest in a silver spoon

[Chorus]
Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go
Buckeye Jim

[Verse 3]
Way down yonder in a wooden trough
An old woman died of a whoopin' cough

[Chorus]
Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go
Buckeye Jim
[Verse 4]
Way down yonder in a hollow log
A red bird danced with the green bullfrog

[Chorus]
Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go
Buckeye Jim
