Jack, Can I Ride

[Chorus]
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh

[Verse 1]
Asked my momma for fifteen cents
To see the elephant jump the fence
He jumped so high till he hit the sky
He couldn't get back till next July

[Chorus]
Jack, can I ride
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh

[Verse 2]
Asked my mama for five cents more
To see the elephant climb the door
He jumped so low, he stumped his toe
And that was the end of the elephant show

[Chorus]
Jack, can I ride
Jack, can I ride
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh
Jack, can I ride, oh, oh

[Verse 3]
Jaybird sitting on a swinging limb
Winked at me and I winked at him
Picked up a stick and I hit him on the shin
"Good Lawdamighty, don't do that again!"

[Chorus]
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
