    I love the drums in this song. I also like the words. It's always been a favorite. (Italics mine.)

    Happy Jack wasn't old, but he was a man
    He lived in the sand at the Isle of Man

    The kids would all sing, he would take the wrong key
    So they rode on his head on their furry donkey

    The kids couldn't hurt Jack
    They tried and tried and tried
    They dropped things on his back
    And lied and lied and lied and lied and lied
    But they couldn't stop Jack or the waters lapping
    And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy
    The kids couldn't hurt Jack
    They tried and tried and tried

    They dropped things on his back
    And lied and lied and lied and lied and lied

    But they couldn't stop Jack nor the waters lapping
    And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy


    'I saw ya'
