Wind her up, wind her up
It's been years since she came
Over on the green plains to you

She calls his name
Sha-na-dee a dee a dee a dee
Over rock and sea to her baby

When the box went in the ground
Cedar trees were all around
A war did take him from her town
And she ain't nothing but a ghost now

Wind-up doll in the back
Wind-up doll click and clack
Click and clack
She will never be what you want her to be

She has dreams every night
That the box of cedar where
Where you went to lay will come to life

Hold her on the greens
Hold her on the green plains like you used to do
But she ain't nothing but a ghost you
You wind her up in the back
Wind-up doll click and clack
Click and clack
She will never be what you want her to be
Wind her up to walk and wind her up to speak

Hold her on the greens
Hold her on the green plains like you used to do
But she ain't nothing but a ghost
