Each little clam here know how to jam 
here
         D   A7  D
Under da sea
D           G                   A7
Each little slug here cutting a rug 
here
         D
Under da sea
            G                      A
Each little snail here know how to wail
 here
               Bm              E
dat's why it's hotter under da water
          G                     A7
