Watermelon Water - Eddie Fisher, Perry Como

It’s watermelon weather

That summer kind of weather

When people get together and sing

It’s the time of year

The stars seem to dance with laughter

And the moon’s so big and ripe

It can hardly climb

So, why don’t you meander

To your best gal’s veranda

And sorta, kinda, hand her the ring?

For it’s the sweetheart kissin' season

And all the world’s in rhyme

When it’s watermelon sweet love tellin' time

This is the time to sing this kind of purdy little ditty

A walkin' along an' singin' a song and clinging to someone purdy

The type of a tune to go with the moon

That’s sailin' along a way on high

After strollin' a while, for maybe a mile

Remember to stop and pop the question

If your timin' is right, your future is bright

As bright as a watermelon sky

And then when you found a bench for two

You found your cue to linger

The chance you sought to show what you bought

You happily thought to bring her

To cinch the thing, you give her the ring

You purchased from the five and dime

Take her in your arms and whisper

That you are mine all mine

And with that line to sell, I’m here to tell

That you’ll do well in watermelon time

For it’s the sweetheart kissin' season

And all the world’s in rhyme

When it’s watermelon sweet love tellin' time
