Down By The Bay

by Traffic

on Singable Songs for the Very Young (1976)

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 whale with a polka dotted tail?"
Down By the bay
(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 fly wearing a tie?"
down by the bay
(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 moose kissing a goose?"
down my the bay
(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 your teacher kissing a creature?"
down by the bay
(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 spider drinking apple cider?"
down by the bay
(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 an apple in its own bapple?"
"did you ever have a time where you couldn't find a rhyme?"
DOWN BY THE BAY!
