Perry Como - Watermelon Weather (with Eddie Fisher) lyrics

It's water . . . melon weather That summer kind of weather When people get together an' sing! It's the time of year the stars Seem to dance with laughter An' the moon's so big an' ripe It can hardly climb! So, why don't you meander To your best gal's veranda An' 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 tellin' 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 You 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 watermelon sweet love tellin' time! Music by Hoagy Carmichael
