Elizabeth Mitchell Why, Oh Why? song lyrics

Why can't a dish break a hammer?

Why oh why oh why?

'Cause a hammer's a hard head

Goodbye goodbye goodbye

Why, oh why, oh why oh, why?

Why, oh why, oh why?

Because because because because

Goodbye goodbye goodbye

Why can't a bird eat an elephant?

Why, oh why, oh why?

'Cause an elephant's got a pretty hard skin

Goodbye goodbye goodbye

Why can't a mouse eat a streetcar?

Why, oh why, oh why?

'Cause a mouse's stomach could never get big enough to hold a streetcar

Goodbye goodbye goodbye

Why does a horn make music?

Why, oh why, oh why?

Because the horn-blower blows it

Goodbye goodbye goodbye

Why does a cow drink water?

Tell me why n why?

Because the cow gets thirsty just like you or me or anybody else

Goodbye goodbye goodbye

Why, oh why, oh why oh, why?

Why, oh…

(by Woody Guthrie)
