[C] [Dm] [Gm]
[G]
I was driving through Georgia in late July on a day hot enough to make the devil sigh.
I saw a homie sign [C] written in red, [G] Rhyme County [D] Watermelon Festival [G] ahead.
Well I wasn't in a hurry, so I slowed down and took a two lane road [D] to a one [G] horse town.
There was a party going [C] on, but got there I [G] heard a welcome speech from a small town man.
He [C] said we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine [G] made from the biggest watermelons on the vine.
[C] Help yourself to some, but don't pay too long [G] if you drink don't drive, [D] do the watermelon [Bb] crawl.
[G]
Well when the band started playing, the watermelon queen said let me show you something that you ain't never seen.
She grabbed me by the arm and said come [C] on let's go.
[G] She dipped down spun [D] around and dove, [G] said dove.
She rocked back on her [Gm] heels and dropped down to her knees, [G] crawled across the floor, [D] then she jumped back [G] on her feet.
She wiggled and she jiggled, [C] beat all you ever saw, [G] said this is how you do [D] the [G] watermelon crawl.
She said [C] we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine [G]
made from the biggest watermelons on the vine.
[C] Help yourself to some, but don't pay too long [G] if you drink don't drive, [D] do the watermelon [C] crawl.

If you're ever down in Georgia round about [Gm] July and you ain't in a hurry then you ought to stop by.
I can [Dm]
guarantee [C] you're gonna have a [A] ball learning how to do [D] the [G] watermelon crawl.
He said [C] we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine [G] made from the biggest watermelons on the vine.
[C] Help yourself to some, but don't pay too long [G] if you drink don't drive, [D] do the watermelon [G] crawl.

Have fun you [G] all.
Do the watermelon crawl.
