Lefty Frizzell "Watermelon Time in Georgia" |
Thank you, Detroit, you treated me good But I've been here longer than I should I enjoyed the money, but I miss my honey so One thing on my mind, it's watermelon time in Georgia. Well, it makes a country boy get down in the mouth When his body's up north but his hearts down south I said I'd be back; I'd better make tracks today Lawdy I gotta go, it's watermelon time in Georgia. Daddy's sitting in the sun, keeps the fish from having fun My old coon dog is a wantin' to run And I can't reach, my little Georgia peach too soon One things on my mind, it's watermelon time in Georgia. So long Detroit, so long friends If you're ever down in Macon, won't you please stop in? And meet the little girl, that's always been my whole world Well, I'm leaving today, it's watermelon time in Georgia. Yes, I'm leaving today cause it's watermelon time in Georgia...
