Watermelon Hanging On Ahe Vine

G                      C                  G
See that watermelon smiling through the fence
G                                   D
I really wanna eat that watermelon fine
G                                 C                     G
Some folks sure am foolish, They haven't got a lot of sense
                             D            G
Or they wouldn't leave that melon on that vine

{Chorus}
C                 G
Hambone is sweet, chicken is good
G                        D
Rabbit is so very, very fine
G                             C              G
But  give me, oh give me, now how I wish you would
                 D              G
That watermelon hanging on that vine

{Verse 2}
G                                C                      G
You may talk about your apples, your peaches and your pears
G                          D
'Simmons a-growing on the tree
G                                C                  G
But bless your heart my honey, you are the gal for me
                             D              G
Or they wouldn't leave it hanging on that vine

{Chorus}
C                 G
Hambone is sweet, chicken is good
G                        D
Rabbit is so very, very fine
G                             C              G
But  give me, oh give me, now how I wish you would
                 D              G
That watermelon hanging on that vine

{Verse 3}
G                          C                     G
I went to get that melon, it was on one Sunday night
G                                 D
The stars they had just begun to shine
G                                  C                 G
When I left that old man's field, I left there in a run
                          D            G
But I didn't leave that melon on that vine

{Chorus}
C                 G
Hambone is sweet, chicken is good
G                        D
Rabbit is so very, very fine
G                             C              G
But  give me, oh give me, now how I wish you would
                 D              G
That watermelon hanging on that vine
