Lyrics: Southern Man / The Watermelon Song

I See that watermelon
Smiling through the fence
I wish that watermelon it was mine
Sometimes i think that old folks
Ain't got a lick of sense
When they leave that watermelon on the vine,

Well apples are sweet and peaches are good,
Rabbits, so very very fine
But give me oh give me oh,
How i wish you would,
Some of that watermelon smiling on the vine..
