Watermelon Weather
Perry Como
It’s watermelon weather that summer kind of weather When people get together and sing It’s the time of year the stars seem to dance with laughter And the moon’s so big and ripe it can hardly climb Bright as a dime So why don’t you meander to your best girl’s veranda And sorta kinda hand her the ring For it’s the sweetheart kissin’ season And all the world’s in rhyme When it’s watermelon sweet love tell in’ time This is the time to sing this kind of purdy little ditty A-walkin’ along an’ singin’ a song an’ clinging to someone purdy The type of a tune to go with the moon That’s sailin’ along a way on high After strollin’ a while for maybe a mile Remember to stop an’ pop the question If your timin’ is right your future is bright As bright as a watermelon sky An’ then when you found a bench for two Fou found your cue to linger The chance you sought to show what you bought You happily thought to bring her To cinch the thing you give her the ring You purchased from the five an’ dime Take her in your arms an’ whisper that you are mine all mine With that line to sell I’m here to tell That you’ll do well in watermelon time For it’s the sweetheart kissin’ season And all the world’s in rhyme When it’s water - melon sweet love tellin’ time
