Watermelon is a hard word to try and find a rhyme And I thought that I could If I would take the time So, I've travel far and wide From Mount Dora to Saint Helens But couldn't find a word That rhymed with watermelon I have asked Honest Men all the way , Down to a Felon I've whispered pretty please Other times simply yellin' Searching every corner of the earth just like Magellan And I still can't find a rhyming word for watermelon I've pondered over books From real trash to Best Sellin' Worked out every rhyme scheme Till my brain started swellin' If Mister Webster knows, he for sure ain't tellin' About a word that just might rhyme with watermelon

If you had travelled to Devon in the Uk, on the sea bay you’d have met my friend Ellen, she’s as sweet as a watermelon….. Beryl
