Watermelon Man Lyrics


Hey - watermelon man
Hey you with the red truck
Watermelon man
Bring me a watermelon (make it nice and juicy)
Make it mellow (yes you young fellow)
Bring it up here to the fifth floor
Watermelon manSay watermelon man
Did you hear what I said?
Will you bring me a watermelon
Up here to the fifth floor
Five dollars? Wait a minute
What you doin'
Chargin' five dollars a floor?
You think I'm gonna pay five dollars for a watermelon
You crazy
And move your truck, out from my drivewayWhat you say? Say you got what?
You tellin' me you got a license
That's alright, I'll call the police

What you say? You gonna sell the police a watermelon
You might not know what kinda police I might call
Might not even like watermelon
And you keep on tellin' me you got a license
I don't care what kinda license you got
You ain't got no license to sell in my driveway
So move
Oh you ain't gonna move, huh?
Lets see then
I'll get all these hound dogs
And we'll come downstairs and flatten your tires
And we'll get some free
You better move you smart alec
I ain't gonna buy one of your old watermelons
You talk too smart
And that goes for your truck too

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Big Mama Thornton (Willie Mae Thornton, December 11, 1926, Montgomery, AL - July 25, 1984, Los Angeles, CA) was an American blues musician. Her introduction to music, as with most fellow blues legends, started in the Baptist church. The daughter of a minister, she and her six siblings began to sing at a very early age. While still a child, Willie Mae taught herself to play the drums and harmonica, and by the age of 14, she had run away from home to make her career in secular music.
