[Ab]
Happy Jack wasn't [Bb] tall but he [Eb] was little.
He lived in the sand at the isle.
[Fm] [Eb] The kids would all sing, [Bb] he [Eb] would be drunky.
So they rode on his head in their little donkey.
[Ab] Kiss your nose [Bb] every time you try.
[Ab] He dropped it on his [Bb] back, the right, right, right, right, right.
[Eb] They couldn't stop Jack or [Bb] the water slave.
And they couldn't prevent Jack from [Eb] being happy.
