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 (down by the bay)
Where the watermelons grow
(Where the watermelons grow)
Back to my home (back to my home)
I dare not go (I dare not go)
For if I do (for if I do)
My mother will say (my mother will say)
"Did you ever see a fly
Wearing a tie, down by the bay?"

Combing his hair, down by the bay?"
Down by the bay (down by the bay)

Wearing pajamas, down by the bay?"

When you couldn't make a rhyme
Down by the bay?"
