Roger Day using his fun wordplay to describe one of his favorite aquatic characters.

FREDDIE FROG
Words & Music © 1993 Roger Day
From the CD Ready to Fly available at RogerDay.com

Down by the water where the crawdad sleeps
There’s a little green creature with the four-webbed feet
He jumps in the morning. He jumps at night.
He jumps till he jumps clean out of sight

They call him “Mr. Freddie Frog”
He rules the riverbank
Sittin’ on his log

When he was little you mighta called him Mr. Tadpole
Living in the water of your swimming hole
He sprouted some legs. He moved to the land.
That’s because he’s one of those amphibians.

They call him “Mr. Freddie Frog”
He rules the riverbank
Sittin’ on his log

Now you might have heard a rumor that’s been going around
That Mr. Freddie Frog sports a golden crown
If you want to see it just remember this
You gotta pucker up for a big frog kiss!

If you think that you can catch, man, you better be quick
His legs are fast. His skin is slick.
You think you’ve got him cornered then you miss by a mile
He’s so hard to handle, baby, that’s his style

They call him “Mr. Freddie Frog”
He rules the riverbank
Sittin’ on his log

Down by the water where the crawdad sleeps
There’s a little green creature with four-webbed feet
