paroles de chanson Dat Dere (Remastered) - Mel Tormé

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?

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? And where do we get air?
And Daddy can I have dat big elephant over dere?

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 dere?"

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 gotta tell him what he needs to know
Help him along so he'll know right from wrong
Gotta make him strong.

As life's parade goes marching by
He'll need to know some reasons why
I don't have all the answers but I'll try
The best I can, gonna make him a plan
So he'll be a man.

You give a kid your best. And hope he'll passes the test
When you finally send him out into the world somewhere.
But though he's grown, I'm betting I never will forget
Daddy, can I have dat big elephant over dere?

Hey why dey're doing dere? And how you work dat dere?
Oh Daddy, hey Daddy, what dey say up dere?
Hey, Daddy, what is fair? How come I gotta share?
And Daddy can I have dat big elephant over dere?
