watermelon crawl

i was drivin' through georgia in late july

on a day hot enough to make the devil sigh

i saw a homemade sign written in red

rhine county watermelon festival ahead

well

i wasn't in a hurry so i slowed down

took a two lane road to a one horse town

there was a party goin' on when i got there

i heard a welcome speech from a small town mayor

he said we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine

made from the biggest watermelons on the vine

help yourself to some

but obey the law

if you drink

don't drive

do the watermelon crawl

when the band started playin' the watermelon queen

said let me show you somethin' that you ain't ever seen

she grabbed me by the arm

said come on lets go

she dipped down

spun around

and do-ce-doed

she rocked back on her heels dropped down to her knees

crawled across the floor and she jumped back on her feet

she wiggled and she giggled and be all you ever saw

said this is how you do the watermelon crawl

she said we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine

made from the biggest watermelons on the vine

help yourself to some

but obey the law

if you drink

don't drive

do the watermelon crawl

if you're ever down in georgia around about july

if you ain't in a hurry then you oughta stop by

i can guarantee that you're goin' have a ball

learnin' how to do the watermelon crawl

well

we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine

made from the biggest watermelons on the vine

help yourself to some

but obey the law

if you drink

don't drive

do the watermelon crawl

yeah do the watermelon crawl

have fun you all

and do the watermelon crawl
