To Cool Beans:

It's amazing to me that this thread was going on 4 years ago. I had been searching for the exact song you had lyrics to and I was able to find at least 60 versions of the song "Dat Dere" on iTunes! It is a song that I remember my father singing to me when I was a child. Thank you so much for you helping me to find it for my own collection in remembrance of him.
