"Watermelon Man"
(originally by Herbie Hancock)

Hey, watermelon man
Hey, watermelon man
Give me one that rattles when you lug it
One that's red and juicy when you pluck it
Do you understand, watermelon man?

Hey, watermelon man
Hey, watermelon man
Hot and bothered, need a little cooling
When I hear your call I start to drooling
Do you understand, watermelon man?

Hmm, watermelon

Hey, watermelon man
Hey, watermelon man
Hot and bothered, need a little cooling
When I hear your call I start to drooling
Do you understand, watermelon man?

Uh, yeah-yeah
Why don't you cut me a slice?
Say man, what's that you're selling?
Ha-ha-ha-ha, a watermelon

Give me one that rattles when you lug it
One that's red and juicy when you pluck it
Do you understand, watermelon man?
