letra de watermelon party - polk miller & his old south quartette

[verse 1]
there’s a watermelon party gwine givin’ here tonight
oh you darkies won’t you come along with me?
must get on your good behavior now and don’t you ride no bite
oh you darkies won’t you come along with me?
there be nice rolled possum there and sandwiches and ham
some ice cream maples and some huckleberry jam
sweet taters and persimmons and some california grits
all to twist them n-ggas appetite and mostly nourish it (everybody!)

[chorus]
watermelon’s nice, hurry up and cut a slicе
watermelon’s fine, hurry up and givе me mine
watermelon’s nice, hurry up and cut a slice
oh watermelon won’t you give it all to me

[verse 2]
now we gwine to have some chickens if that owner ain’t around
oh you darkies won’t you come along with me?
and we gwine to have some chocolates made out of coffee grounds
oh you darkies won’t you come along with me?
there be catfish and flip flap and jumpin’ jacks and hops
some flip flop, some ginger snaps, some [?] pop
and little frog legs all painted green and custards in a cup
and when them n-ggas sees them all, they’ll die of standing up (everybody!)
[chorus]
watermelon’s nice, hurry up and cut a slice
watermelon’s fine, hurry up and give me mine
watermelon’s nice, hurry up and cut a slice
oh watermelon won’t you give it all to me

[verse 3]
and nearly them watermelons at that party gwine be mine
oh you darkies won’t you come along with me?
well if there’s any watch in that crowd go steal away his time
oh you darkies won’t you come along with me?
we gwine to dance them old time [?]
cut that mobile, [?] cooper and that double pigeon wing
for that is [?] alabama dip
them coons will have to hold their heads right up or lose their upper lip (everybody!)

[chorus]
watermelon’s nice, hurry up and cut a slice
watermelon’s fine, hurry up and give me mine
watermelon’s nice, hurry up and cut a slice
oh watermelon won’t you give it all to me

[verse 4]
now to sing another verse, indeed we haven’t got the time
oh you darkies won’t you come along with me?
why don’t you hear them bells a ringing, they are callin’ me to dine
oh you darkies won’t you come along with me?
there they got all them watermelons and cut in pieces of three
and i’m saving all the sweetest and the biggest pieces for me
and if i stay away much longer then i can’t get in the line
and nothin’ will be left for me but watermelon rind (everybody!)
[chorus]
watermelon’s nice, hurry up and cut a slice
watermelon’s fine, hurry up and give me mine
watermelon’s nice, hurry up and cut a slice
oh watermelon won’t you give it all to me
