Dat Dere (2001 Digital Remaster)

Rickie Lee Jones Dat Dere lyrics"

Hey mama, what's that there?

And what's that doing there?

Hey mama, up here! mama, hey look at that over there!

And what's that doing there?

And where're they going there?

And mummy can I have that big elephant over there?

Who抯 that in my chair?

And what抯 he doing there?

Mummy, up here!

Mummy, can I go over there?

Hey mummy, what is square?

And where do we get air?

And mummy can I have that big elephant over there?

Quit talking!

There抯 no more anything here!

Forever to manage to know who and why and where!

Quit that, child!

Sometimes the questions get filed!

And mummy can I have that big elehpant over there?

Don抰 wanna comb my hair

And where抯 my teddy bear?

Mummy, up here!

Look at the cowboy coming there!

And can I have a pair

Of boots like that to wear?

And mummy can I have that big elephant over there?

Time will march

Days will go

And little baby抯 going to grow

I gotta tell her what she needs to know

I抣l help her along

And she抣l be strong

And she抣l know right from wrong

As life抯 parade goes marching by

She抯 gonna need to know some reasons why

I don抰 have all the answers

But I抣l try the best as I can

I抣l make him a man, that抯 right

抍ause you give the kid your best

And hope she passes the test

Mummy, can I have that big elephant over there?

Hey why they do that there?

And how you put that there?

Hey mummy, up here! hey mummy, what that say up there?

Hey mummy, what is fair?

How come I have to share?

And mummy can I have that big elephant over there? (3x)
