[Dm] [C] [G]
I was driving through Georgia in late [Gm] July [G] on a day hot enough to [D] make the devil [G] sigh.
I saw a homemade sign [C] written in [G] red, Rhyme County [D] Watermelon Festival [G] ahead.
Yeah, I wasn't in a hurry so I slowed down, took a two lane [D] road to a one heart [G] town.
There was a party going [C] on when I got [G] there, a welcome feast from [D] a small [G] town man.
He [C] said, we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine [G] made from the biggest watermelon on the vine.
[C] Help yourself to some, but oh baby [G] lord if you [D] drink don't drive, do the watermelon crawl.
