"I didn't want to be a pilot anyway. I wanted to be... a lumberjack!
Leaping from tree to tree as they float down the mighty rivers of British Columbia! The Fir! The Larch! The Redwood! The mighty Scots Pine!
The plucky little Aspen! The great limping rude tree of Nigeria!
The smell of fresh-cut timber! The crash of mighty trees!
With my best gal by my side, we'd sing, SING...
Oh, I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay!
I sleep all night and I work all day"
He's a lumberjack, and he's okay!
He sleeps all night and he works all day.
"I cut down trees, I eat my lunch,
I go to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays I go shoppin'
and have buttered scones for tea."
He cuts down trees, he eats his lunch,
he goes to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays he goes shoppin'
and has buttered scones for tea.
He's a lumberjack, and he's okay.
He sleeps all night and he works all day!
"I cut down trees, I skip and jump,
I like to press wild flowers.
I put on women's clothing
and hang around in bars!"
He cuts down trees, he skips and jumps,
he likes to press wild flowers.
He puts on women's clothing
and hangs around in bars?!
...He's a lumberjack, and he's okay!
He sleeps all night and he works all day!
"I cut down trees, I wear high heels,
suspenders and a bra!
I wish I'd been a girlie,
just like my dear papa!"
He cuts down trees, he wears... high heels?
Suspenders... and a bra?!
