Down By The Bay


6   -6  6   7  
Down by the bay 

 6     6   -6-6 6 6   -7
where the watermelons grow,

6   -6 6  -7   6  -6  -7   7
Back to my home I dare not go.

7   -7-7 -6  7 -7 -7  -6    6
For if I do my mother will say:

7  -8  8 -8  8 -8   8
Did you ever see a goose

8  8  -8   8
Kissing a moose,

8   8  -8   7
Down by the bay.

Repeat first three lines, then

Did you ever see a whale 
With a polka dot tail
Down by the bay.

Repeat first 3 lines,

Did you ever see a fly 
Wearing a tie. etc

Repeat the first three lines,

Did you ever sear a bear
Combing his hair.

Repeat, etc.

Did you ever see llamas
Eating their panamas, etc.

Did you ever see a squirrel
Juggling pearls?

Did you ever see a priest
Eating yeast?

Did you ever se a rat
Chasing a cat?

End with two "Down by the Bay."
