John McCutcheon - Watermelon lyrics

I was out in the garden pulling up some weeds

When I had got to the place where I had planted those seeds

It was the biggest thing that I'd ever seen

Like a giant football but the color was green

Chorus:

Slurp (Ptt!), Slurp (Ptt!), Slurp (Ptt!), Ahh!

Slurp (Ptt!), Slurp (Ptt!), Slurp (Ptt!), Ahh!

W-A-T-E-R-M-E-L-O-N(What's that spell?)

Watermelon!

W-A-T-E-R-M-E-L-O-N

I sat down the other day just to have a little snack

I took a piece of watermelon out of my sack

It ran down my chin and on to my clothes

I got it in my hair, man, I got it up my nose

Chorus

You know it's green on the outside, pink on the in

But your stomach's gonna ache if you eat the white skin

And you better spit the seeds, cause I'm telling you, brother

They're gonna come out one end or the other

Chorus
