Harry Belafonte - "Whyn Why" lyrics

Goodnight, goodnight
Why can't a mouse eat a streetcar
Why an' why an' why
Because a mouse's stomach is too small to hold a streetcar
Goodnight, goodnight
Why does a camel drink water
Why an' why an' why
Because a camel gets thirsty
Like you and me and everybody else does
Goodnight, goodnight
Why can't a cow have kittens
Why an' why an' why
Because a cow has little calves and a cat has little kittens
And besides it's easier this way goodnight, goodnight
Why don't you answer my questions
Why an' why an' why
Cause I don't know the answers, goodnight, goodnight
