watermelon man - johnnie taylor lyrics

[intro]
huh, listen

[verse 1]
i remember when i was nothing but
a lad of a boy sometime ago
i remember every summer in my home
we had one guy that outstood all the rest
he was a man who used to come around every day
and this is what he would say:
“ooooh, watermelon man”, with your boogaloo style
“ooooh, watermelon man”
and everybody in the neighborhood would said this:
“your brain’s just getting watermelons every day
please make sure your wings come my way”
everybody digs watermelon man

[verse 2]
well, as the years grew on and i got older
we used to have to sell watermelon
only on friday, ’cause that was
the only day we could get out of school
and every friday and sat-rday
we would go out and help him say this:
“ooooh, watermelon man”, he had me help him saying this:
“ooooh, watermelon man”, listen
they make your lip go flipty-flop (haha)
the one we sell on it sucks, sure it’s hot
that’s why everybody digs watermelon man

[verse 3]
i wonder what the band help me say it one more time
yeah, i need everybody in the audience
to help me say it one more time, i’m gon’ say it, too:
“ooooh, watermelon man”, yeah
their tough and sweet of they can be
they’re so sweet i can almost eat the seeds
everybody in town dig watermelon man, huh
now let me tell you: “ooooh, watermelon man”
that’s what i heard him sayin’: “ooooh yeah
you got such good bread”

[outro]
and ripe, and sweet, watermelon
you had me always thirsty
