“Watermelon Man” is a standard jazz tune composed by pianist Herbie Hancock. The tune follows a regular 16-bar blues form that draws on elements from gospel and R&B. Hancock claimed that the song was built his childhood memories from Chicago. “I still remember the song of the watermelon man when he drove his wagon around our neighborhood. The wheels of the wagon played the rhythm on the cobblestones.”.
