Rusty's Rocking Jamboree: Music

This is a song I wrote nearly 25 years ago. It's funny how the silliest and easiest of songs sometimes last the longest. I uploaded this at the request of a friend.

You know, you got Casaba and the Honeydew
And you know, you got the Watermelon too
But the best by far, I'm giving you the straight dope
The best by far is the Cantaloupe

Listen to me Sonny, I don't wanna be funny
But I tell you what I'd do, if I didn't have the money
I'd steal them suckers, yes, I'd become a felon
Shoplifting those Cantaloupe Melons

Run to the Supermarket, tell the Supermarket man
To give you a fresh, ripe Cantaloupe, not one in the can
Don't want no tomatoes, don't want no artichoke
I just want a nice, ripe Cantaloupe

Don't want no weenies, don't want no jelly beanies
Don't want no bananas, no cigars from Havana
No Sugar Frosted Cereal or Ivory Soap
I just want a nice, ripe Cantaloupe

I told my girlfriend I would always be true
I said, "Hey, let's get married. Oh, Honey do!"
She said, "Without a nice wedding, I can not cope
That's why I'm saying we Can't Elope!"

Run to the Supermarket, tell the Supermarket man
To give you a fresh, ripe Cantaloupe, not one in the can
Don't want no tomatoes, don't want no artichoke
I just want a nice, ripe Cantaloupe

Don't want no weenies, don't want no jelly beanies
Don't want no bananas, no cigars from Havana
No Sugar Frosted Cereal or Ivory Soap
I just want a nice, ripe Cantaloupe

So you know, you got Casaba and them Honeydew
And you know, you got the Watermelon too
But the best by far, I'm giving you the straight dope
The best by far is the Cantaloupe
The best by far is the Cantaloupe
Go out and buy yourself a Musk Melon!
