Why, Oh Why?

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)
