Watermelon Crawl

[G7]        I was driving through Georgia in late July
        on a day hot enough to make the [D]Devil [G7]sigh
        I saw a homemade sign [C]written in red
        [G7]"Run! County Watermelon [D]Festival [G7]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

[C]        He said we got 100 gallons of sweet red wine
        [G]made from the biggest watermelons on the vine
        help your[C]self to some but obey the law
        if you [G]drink don't drive do the [D]Watermelon Crawl

When the band started playin a watermelon queen
        Said let me show you something that you ain't never seen
        she grabbed me by the arm said c'mon let's go
        she dipped down spun around and do-si-do'd

she rocked back on her heels dropped down to her knees
        crawled across the floor then she jumped back to her feet
        she wiggled and she jiggled - beat all you ever saw
        said "This is how you down the Watermelon Crawl"

over chorus]

If you're ever down in Georgia round about July
        if you ain't in a hurry then you oughta stop by
        I can guarantee you're gonna have a ball
