Joe- You're not the only one who's cornfused. Froggie relates to many songs. Here's one way Froggie relates to Buck-eye/Limber Jim:

FROGGIE

A frog he would a-wooing go
A-too-re-lal, a-too-re-lal,
He went into Miss Mouse's hall
And there he loudly rapped and called,
He said, Miss Mouse, are you within?
She said, I sit and spin.

From Mrs. Ford Kent of New York

BUCK-EYE JIM

Chorus: Buck-eyed Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go
Buck-eyed Jim

The "weave and spin" line is similar.

Even the Carter Family song I posted (Kitty and I) is related in a round about way to Froggie.
