[G]
Happy Jack [D] wasn't tall but he wasn't He lived in the sand at the Isle of Man
The kids would all sing he would sing grumpy So they rode on his head in their furry donkey
[G] Kids don't know Jack [A] they talk, talk, [G] talk He's hopping, hopping [A] back and forth
They [D] couldn't stop Jack or the wasps stopped him
And they couldn't prevent Jack from being happy
[A] [D]
