Georgia Products In Verse.
Since Governor Slaton has pro
claimed Nov. 18th, Georgia Prod
ucts Day, and urged its observance
along the lines indicated by the
Georgia Chamber of Commerre
there has been a great searching
for verses and poems relating to
Georgia and her products. It is
remarkable how many times those
have proven a theme of most ac
ceptable and even unusual verses,
among which may b- enumerated
the following by Frank L. Stanton,
in his book “Songs of the Soil:”
Watermelon Song.
Oh, the Georgia watermelon —it’s
a growing cool an green,
An’ll soon be pullin’ heavy at the
stem:
An’ the knife—it needs a whettin’
an’ the blade is gettin’ keen.
Oh, the Georgia watermelon is a
gem!
Melons cool an’ green—
Jest the best you ever seen!
Seen the sweet juice drip
pin’
From them melons cool an’
green!
Oh, the Georgia watermelon —with
the purtiest sort o’stripe!
It ain’t a streak o’ fat and a streak
o’ lean; You thump her with
your fingers, an’ you hear her
answer “Ripe”!
Oh, the Georgia watermelon cool
an’ green!
Melons cool an’ green —
Jest the best you ever seen!
See the sweet juice drippin’
From them melons cool an’
green!
When you pull a Georgia melon
you must know
what you are at,
And look out how your knife is
goin’ in;
Put one half on this side o’ you,
the other half on that,
An’ then you git between ’em an’
begin!
Melons cool and green —
Jest the best you ever seen!
See the sweet juice drippin’
From them melons cool and
green!
They’re mi hty, fillin’ with their
flamin’ hearts o’ red —
Like the reddest o’ roses in the
South;
When cotton’s down to nothin’,
take the place o’ meat an’
bread; :*
Make you think a hive o’ honey’s
in your mouth!
Melons cool an’ green—
Best the country ever seen!
Oh, the meltin’ sweetness
Of the melons cool an’ green!
But it’s way ahead o' honey—as a
slice or two will prove;
It’s slicker, an’ it’s a sweeter as it
slips!
There dn’t no “nigger problem”
when the melon’s on the
move —
Make the white man an’ the nigger
smack his lips!
Melons cool an’ gr en —
Don’t want any fence be
tween.
But I’d outclimb all creation
For them melons cool an’
green!
