WATERMELON SONGS

WATERMELON CHANT

First you take a seed and you plant it, plant it.
Then, you see a sprout and you water it, water it.
Then, you see a vine and you watch it, watch it.
Then, you see a watermelon and you pick it, pick it.
Then, you slice it up and you eat it, eat it.
If you find a seed, then you plant it, plant it.
And start all over again!

THE WATERMELON SONG
Tune:  “Frere Jacques”

Watermelon, watermelon,
Tastes so yummy, tastes so yummy.
Green on the outside,
Red on the inside
With black seeds, with black seeds.

PICKING UP MELONS
Tune:  “Paw, Paw Patch”

Picking up melons
And put them in the basket.
Picking up melons
And put them in the basket.
Picking up melons
And put them in the basket
Way down yonder
In the watermelon patch.

WATERMELON VALENTINE
Tune:  “Frere Jacques”

Watermelon, watermelon
On the vine, on the vine.
Red, sweet and juicy,
Red, sweet and juicy,
Please be my, valentine!
