[Intro 1]
[G][G]

[Verse 1]
Down by the [G]bay
Where the watermelons [D]grow

For if I [C]do
My mother will [G]say
Did you ever see a bear, combing his hair?
[D]Down by the [G]bay

[Verse 2]
Down by the [G]bay, (down by the bay)
Where the watermelons [D]grow,
(where the watermelons grow)
Back to my home, (back to my home)
I dare not [G]go, (I dare not go)
For if I [C]do, (for if I do)
My mother will [G]say, (my mother will say)
Did you ever see a bee
with a sunburned knee?
[D]Down by the [G]bay

[Verse 3]
Down by the [G]bay, (down by the bay)
Where the watermelons [D]grow,
(where the watermelons grow)
Back to my home, (back to my home)
I dare not [G]go, (I dare not go)
For if I [C]do, (for if I do)
My mother will [G]say, (my mother will say)
Did you ever see a moose kissing a goose?
[D]Down by the [G]bay

Down by the [G]bay, (down by the bay)

For if I [C]do, (for if I do)
My mother will [G]say, (my mother will say)
Did you ever see a whale with a polka dot tail?
[D]Down by the [G]bay
