Alex Hood - Pumpkin Paddy lyrics
Pumpkins, cantaloupes, watermelons too A squash and a gramma or a ripe honey dew The vines grow green where he's passed through There's plenty there for me and you Pumpkin Paddy was his name Pumpkin planting was his game Wherever he passed through the land He planted seeds in soil and sand Pumpkins, cantaloupes, watermelons too A squash and a gramma or a ripe honey dew The vines grow green where he's passed through There's plenty there for me and you He had an old felt hat and a tired old coat An old blue scarf around his throat A great big swag swung across his back He carried his seeds in a little brown sack Pumpkins, cantaloupes, watermelons too A squash and a gramma or a ripe honey dew The vines grow green where he's passed through There's plenty there for me and you One day a farmer saw Paddy go by He said Hey Paddy, tell me why You plant those seeds everywhere although You could never eat all the things you grow Pumpkins, cantaloupes, watermelons too A squash and a gramma or a ripe honey dew The vines grow green where he's passed through There's plenty there for me and you Well Paddy sat down and he scratched his head In a little while he said While there's a hungry mouth to feed The world will need my pumpkin seed Pumpkins, cantaloupes, watermelons too A squash and a gramma or a ripe honey dew The vines grow green where he's passed through There's plenty there for me and you Pumpkins, cantaloupes, watermelons too A squash and a gramma or a ripe honey dew The vines grow green where he's passed through There's plenty there for me and you
