Guy Clark - Watermelon Dream Lyrics

Font:

Align:

The sun was hot and the dust rose up like smoke

So we hid beneath the elm tree and watched the watermelons float

There in a big 'ol tub of ice

And we'd split em open with a kitchen knife

And everybody had a sliece it was a watermelon dream

Chorus

Ain't nothin' sweeter than a watermelon dream

'Cept sittin on the front porch eatin' that peach ice cream

When life is really sweeter than it seems

That's what you've got to call a watermelon dream

With sticky hands and and faces we fought the yellow-jackets to a draw

Then we used the rind for second base and played a little hard ball

I don't know how much we ate

But we all got the belly-ache

And everybody stayed up wat too late

It was a watermelon dream

Chorus

Then a little after sundown we'd be runnin out of steam

So we'd light a roman candle and try to hold on tho the dream

Maybe slip out behind a car

Take a little tastes from a jar

Then just lay back and count the stars

That's called a watermelon dream
