My name is Buddy, don't you pity me
Don't you pity me, don't you pity me
(Repeat)
Just because I ain't so big, you think I'm small
Well, you think I'm small, now you think I'm small
You go around with your head up in the clouds
You just tall, that's all, you just tall, that's all
Now, if you like your tree, better watch out for your tree
Watch out for your tree, Lord, that tree ain't free
The birds won't be 'round just to keep you company
Keep you company, keep you company
If you like your little backyard, watch out for your backyard
Don't let 'em put a toll road right through your backyard
(Repeat)
Now, you go around with your head up in the clouds
Head up in the clouds, your head up in the clouds
(Repeat)
Well, you ain't so big, you just tall, that's all
Now, this land was made for you and me
Better watch out for your land, better watch out for your land
(Repeat)
