Down by the bay
Where the watermelons grow
Up to my knees
I dare not go
For if I do
My mother will say...

"Did you ever see a frog, walking a dog?"
Down by the bay! (repeat chorus)
"Did you ever see a mouse, painting a house?"
Down by the bay! (repeat chorus)
"Did you ever see a whale, with a polka dot tail?"
Down by the bay! (repeat chorus)
"Did you ever see a fly, wearing a tie?"
Down by the bay! (repeat chorus)

"Bumping Up and Down," by Raffi

Bumping up and down in my little red wagon
Bumping up and down in my little red wagon
Bumping up and down in my little red wagon
Won't you be my darling

One wheel's off and the axle's broken
One wheel's off and the axle's broken
One wheel's off and the axle's broken
Won't you be my darling

Freddie’s gonna fix it with his hammer
Freddie’s gonna fix it with his hammer
Freddie’s gonna fix it with his hammer
Won't you be my darling

Laura’s gonna fix it with her pliers
Laura’s gonna fix it with her pliers
Laura’s gonna fix it with her pliers
Won't you be my darling
