Show w . lYbat to do With a Watermelon. When you thump it with your fingers and it cives a heavy sound. Like snmmerrain a-fallin' on the dry an' dusty ground, Jes' get your Barlow ready an' prepare to make a swipe, And carve it straight an' steady, till it opens, red an' ripe. Then fold your Barlcw careful, an' take your melon flat; Put one half on this side of you, the other half on tnat; Then, take the biggest in your lap and tear the heart out so; An' ssnsck your lips, an' praise the Lord from whom all blessin's flow. - - |
