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 a bee with a sunburned knee,
Down by the bay?"
It can happen anywhere,
My mum is old and a little odd,
She drives her truck all around...
"Don't lie, kid, momma's in town."
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 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?"
It can happen anywhere,
My mum is old and a little odd,
She drives her truck all around...
"Don't lie, kid, momma's in town."
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 llamas eating pajamas,
Did you ever see a cat running from a rat,
Did you ever see snail chasing his tail,
Did you ever see a horse dancing waltz,
Down by the bay?"
It can happen anywhere,
My mum is old and a little odd,
She drives her truck all around...
"Don't lie, kid, momma's in town."
