Watermelon Smilin' On The Vine

Unread post by You_Enjoy_Myself » Thu May 12, 2005 7:37 pm

I was browsing dmbalmanac the other day, and I noticed during the '96 dave and tim tour, they would sometimes play a short little song called Watermelon Smilin' On The Vine. I've also heard it just called the Watermelon Song. Does anyone have a copy of this song that they could send my way?
