Lyrics
Jay, jay, plant me an acorn
(I will plant you a thousand acorns)
Acorn, acorn, grow me an oak
(I will grow you an oak that will live for a thousand years)
Year, Year, fledge me a jay
(I will fledge you a jay that will plant you a thousand acorns, that will each grow a thousand oaks, that will each live a thousand years, that will each fledge a bright-backed, blue-winged, forest-making jay)
