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 never seen"

She grabbed me by the arm, said, "Come on, let's go"

She dipped down, spun around, and do-si-doed

She rocked back on her heels, dropped down to her knees

Crawled across the floor, then she jumped back on her feet

She wiggled and she jiggled, beat 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 'round about July

If you ain't in a hurry, then you ought to stop by

I can guarantee that you're gonna 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

Do the watermelon crawl (Whoo!)
