Down By the Bay
[Verse 1]
Down by the bay
Where the watermelons grow
Back to my home
I dare not go
For if I do
My mother will say
"Did you ever seen a goose
Kissing a moose
Down by the bay?"
[Verse 2]
Down by the bay
Where the watermelons grow
Back to my home
I dare not go
For if I do
My mother will say
"Did you ever seen a whale
With a polka dot tail
Down by the bay?"
[Verse 3]
Down by the bay
Where the watermelons grow
Back to my home
I dare not go
For if I do
My mother will say
"Did you ever seen a fly
Wearing a tie
Down by the bay?"
[Verse 4]
Down by the bay
Where the watermelons grow
Back to my home
I dare not go
For if I do
My mother will say
"Did you ever see a bear
Combing his hair
Down by the bay?"
[Verse 5]
Down by the bay
Where the watermelons grow
Back to my home
I dare not go
For if I do
My mother will say
"Did you ever see llamas
Eating their pajamas
Down by the bay?"
[Verse 6]
Down by the bay
Where the watermelons grow
Back to my home
I dare not go
For if I do
My mother will say
"Did you ever have a time
When you couldn't make a rhyme
Down by the bay?"
[Outro]
Down by the bay
Where the watermelons grow
Back to my home
I dare not go
For if I do
