Текст песни: Watermelon Man + перевод

I don’t want your pork chops

I don’t want your turnip greens

I think that I’ll pass up the cornbread

'Cause a piece of watermelon is what I need

And it’s so strong 'cause it’s been so long

Since I’ve tasted that dear forbidden fruit

And my heart sighs as I realize

That that watermelon time is a-gettin' due

And I’m a watermelon man

I can see you, bright eyes

I can see your smile

I can tell by your supper song

That you could drive a sane man wild

With your straw hair flowing freely

And those big green eyes starin' back at me

But it’s just fine if you put your hand in mine

And lay in the shade of the big magnolia tree

And I’m a watermelon man

Why don’t you come to the cabin

Bring your watermelon patch

We’ll dance in the meadows

What more could I ask, what more could I ask

Let’s go find the covers

Back porch summer’s dream

I can’t think of many others

That can eat their watermelon the way that they please

And it’s a new day

Watermelons waste away

And the sun is startin' to rise up over the hill

But it’s all right I haven’t lost my appetite

And you know that I’m eatin' those wasted watermelons still

Yes, I am

And I’m a watermelon man

Yes, I’m a watermelon man

(hit it now)
