Down by the baby
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 baby
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?”

Down by the baby
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?”

入り江のほとりのすいか畑のあたり
ぼくは家に帰る勇気がないよ
だって、もし帰ったら、母さんが言うだろうからさ
「入り江のほとりで毛をとかしているクマを見たかい？」
「入り江のほとりで膝が日焼けしたミツバチを見たかい？」
「入り江のほとりでガチョウにキスしているヘラジカを見たかい？」
