[Verse 1] Jeffie lives by the oak tree Tail up like a flag in the wind He stuffs his cheeks with the good stuff Then he grins, then he dives in again Tiny paws on the fence rail Quick as a spark in the rain He knows every crack in the back lane And he knows when the crows call his name [Pre-Chorus] He don’t wait for permission He just makes a little scene One nut in each cheek, baby That’s how Jeffie stays supreme [Chorus] Jeffie the squirrel Jeffie the squirrel He’s got the whole yard spinning Jeffie the squirrel Jeffie the squirrel Always wins by a whisker [Verse 2] At noon he raids the bird feeder At dusk he owns the old brick wall He skips like a stone on the sidewalk Then he vanishes, gone before you call There’s a stash in the blue flower pot There’s a stash by the bent-up gate If you blink, he’s already gone there If you wait, he’s still worth the chase [Pre-Chorus] He don’t wait for permission He just makes a little scene One nut in each cheek, baby That’s how Jeffie stays supreme [Chorus] Jeffie the squirrel Jeffie the squirrel He’s got the whole yard spinning Jeffie the squirrel Jeffie the squirrel Always wins by a whisker [Bridge] When the branches start shaking You know that grin is near Little crown of fallen leaves on A bandit made of cheer [Final Chorus] Jeffie the squirrel Jeffie the squirrel He’s got the whole yard spinning Jeffie the squirrel Jeffie the squirrel Always wins by a whisker
