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's on my mind, it's watermelon time in Georgia
It makes a country boy get down in the mouth
When his body's up north but his heart's down south
I said I'd be back, I'd better make tracks today
Lawdy I gotta go because it's watermelon time in Georgia
Daddy's sitting in the sun, kids are fishing having fun
My old coon dog is a wantin' to run
But I can't reach, my little Georgia peach too soon
One thing's on my mind, it's watermelon time in Georgia
Well so long Detroit, so long friends
If you're ever down in Macon, you better stop in
And meet the little girl that's always been my whole world
I'm leaving today because it's watermelon time in Georgia
So long Detroit, goodbye good 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
I'm leaving today because it's watermelon time in Georgia
But I've been here longer than I should
I enjoyed the money but I miss my honey so
One thing's on my mind, it's watermelon time in Georgia
It makes a country boy get down in the mouth
When his body's up north but his heart's down south
I said I'd be back, I'd better make tracks today
Lawdy I gotta go because it's watermelon time in Georgia
Daddy's sitting in the sun, kids are fishing having fun
My old coon dog is a wantin' to run
But I can't reach, my little Georgia peach too soon
One thing's on my mind, it's watermelon time in Georgia
Well so long Detroit, so long friends
If you're ever down in Macon, you better stop in
And meet the little girl that's always been my whole world
I'm leaving today because it's watermelon time in Georgia
So long Detroit, goodbye good 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
I'm leaving today because it's watermelon time in Georgia
