Lyrics:
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 goose kissing a moose 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 whale with a polka dot 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, 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 bear combing his hair 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 llamas eating their pajamas 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 snake baking a cake?
“Did you ever see a frog walking his dog?
“Did you ever see a mouse painting his house down by the bay?”
Down by the bay, down by the bay.
