Текст песни The Watermelon Song

Down in Tennessee I used to sit upon the fence

A-wonderin' about the lack of people's common sense

What I didn't then couldn't keep concealed

Was one great big fat watermelon layin' in the field

See that watermelon hangin' on the vine

I wish that watermelon could be mine

The farmer must be careless

Without a lick of sense

Or he wouldn't leave it hangin'

On the vine

Cornbread is sweet

Pork chops are good

Blackeyed peas are mighty, mighty fine

But give me, oh give me

I really wish you would

That watermelon hangin' on the vine

Got a gal who loves me

She always treats me fine

She lets hug and kiss her all the time

I wish that all her kisses

Could taste half as sweetTennessee Ernie Ford - The Watermelon Song - http://ru.motolyrics.com/tennessee-ernie-ford/the-watermelon-song-lyrics.html

As the watermelon hangin' on the vine

Oh kissin' is sweet

Huggin' is good

Cherry lips taste mighty, mighty fine

But give me, oh give me

I really wish you would

That watermelon hangin' on the vine

Well I see that watermelon

So thick, so fat, so fine

What a shame to go leavin' it behind

I know my baby's waitin'

She won't be waitin' long

Now that I got that watermelon off the vine

Oh cornbread is sweet

Pork chops are good

Blackeyed peas are mighty, mighty fine

But I ought to tell you

I really think I should

For lickin' good eatin'

Eat a watermelon hangin' on the vine
