WITH APOLOGIES TO MR's HEATH AND KELLER

by Nelson "Justy" Eisel

(guitar intro, then shouted:) Jayne!

River, River, what did they do t'you?

River, River, how can I help you?

I know you think I'm like the blue-handed guys,

The ones who trimmed bits of your brain and stuck needles in your eyes,

River, I've got to help you,

'Cause you're a sister mine,

River, I'm going to save you,

Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.

(Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.)

Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.

(Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.)

Kaylee, Kaylee, you're the girl for me,

Even when you're covered in engine grease,

I tried to say how I felt, but I lost my nerve,

When I finally got up to it, I said all the wrong words,

Kay, I don't look down on you,

I love that you chose this life,

Kaylee, you're pretty pretty,

You're at home on this Firefly~~ye.

(Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.)

We're both home on this Firefly~~ye.

(Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.)

I've got it, (I've got-) I've got it,

I'll ask the captain for advice,

I've got it, (I've got-) I've got it,

But he won't help, he's no help at all!

'Nara, please talk to Kaylee,

Say I apologized,

'Nara, you've got to help me,

Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.

(Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.)

Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.

(Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.)

River, River, who can you turn to?

(Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.)

Left my life behind, I'll do all I can for you.

(Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.)

Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.

(Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.)

Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.

(Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.)

On this Firefly!

(Now we're home on this Firefly~~ye.)

My Firefly...

That's pretty interesting, how does the Tommy Tutone one go? I'd like to see them and compare, as I've never read or heard it before.

I must admit to being a little intrigued by any song that starts with "Jayne!"
