Dat Dere - Mel Tormé

Daddy Hey Daddy what's dat dere

Oh Daddy oh hey Daddy hey look at over dere

And what dey doing dere

Where dey go in dere

And Daddy can I have dat big elephant over dere

Hey who's dat in my chair

And what she doing dere

And Daddy hey Daddy can I go over dere

Hey Daddy what is a square

Where do we get air

Daddy can I have dat big elephant over there

My quizzical kid

Man he doesn't want anything hid

He's forever demanding to know

Who what and why and where

Inquisitive child

And sometimes the questions get wild

Like "Daddy can I have dat big elehpant over there "

Don't wanna comb my hair

And where's my teddy bear

Daddy oh hey Look at the cowboy coming dere

Hey can I have a pair of boots like dat to wear

And Daddy can I have dat big elephant over dere

The time will march the years will go

The little fellow's gonna grow

I get tell him

What he needs to know

As life's parade goes marching by

You need to know some reasons why

I don't have all the answers but I'll try

My queens go there

Many wanna anything here

Enquirs a child sometime question or why

Hey Daddy what's dat dere

And what's dat under dere

Oh Daddy oh hey Daddy hey look at over dere

And what dey doing dere

And where dey go in dere

And Daddy can I have dat big elephant over dere

Daddy can I have dat big elephant over dere

Hi daddy ho daddy

Daddy daddy daddy daddy daddy daddy

Wo daddy
