[Dm] [C] [G]
I was driving through Georgia in late July on a day hot enough [D] to lick the [C] devil's eye.
[G] I saw a homemade [C] sign written in [G] red.
County [D] Watermelon [G] Festival ahead.
Yeah, I wasn't in a hurry, so I slowed down.
Took a two-lane [D] road to a [G] one-horse town.
There was a party going [C] on when I got [G] there.
I heard a welcome speech from a small-town man.
[C] He said, you got a hundred gallons of sweet red [G] wine
from the biggest watermelons on the [C] vine.
Help yourself to some, but obey the [G] law.
And crank on drive to the Watermelon Cross.
When the band started playing, the watermelon queen said,
let me show you [Dm] something that you [D] ain't never [G] seen.
She grabbed me by the [C] arm, said, come on, let's [G] go.
She dipped down, [Dm] spun around, and [Gm] said, no, she [G] don't.
She rocked back on her heels, dropped down to her knees,
[D] crawled across the floor, and she [Bb] jumped back on her [G] feet.
She wiggled and she [C] jiggled, did all you ever [G] saw.
Said, [D] this is how you do the [G] Watermelon Cross.
[C] She said, you got a hundred gallons of sweet red [G] wine
made from the biggest watermelons on the [C] vine.
Help yourself to some, but obey the [G] law.
And crank on drive to the [D] Watermelon [G] Cross.
[C] [G]
[C] [G]
[D] [G] [G] If you're ever down in Georgia around [C] about July,
if you [G] ain't in a hurry, then you ought to stop by.
[Dm] I can [Fm] guarantee that you're going to have [G] a ball
[D] to do the [G] Watermelon Cross.
[C] Well, we got a hundred gallons of sweet red [G] wine
made from the biggest watermelons on the [C] vine.
Help yourself to some, but obey the [G] law.
If you [D] crank on drive to the Watermelon [G] Cross.
To the Watermelon Cross.
And for you, do the Watermelon Cross.
