LOLLIPOP TREE (J.Darion and G. Kleinsinger) One fine day in early spring I played a funny trick Right in the yard behind my house, I planted a lollipop stick Every day I watered it well And watched it carefully I hoped someday my stick would grow To be a lollipop tree cho: Ha, ha, ha, Ho, ho, ho What a place to be Under my lollipop, lollipop, lollipop Lolly, lolly, lollipop tree Then one day I woke to find A very lovely sight A tree all full of lollipops Had grown in the middle of the night I sat beneath my lollipop tree And looked up with a grin And as I opened up my mouth A lollipop popped right in The winter came, the days grew cold As winter days will do And on my tree, my lollipop tree Not a single lollipop grew On every branch an icicle hung The leaves were bare as bones But as I knocked those icicles off They turned into ice cream cones Recorded by Burl Ives, and by the Limeliters on "Through Children's Eyes" On Burl Ives "A Twinkle In Your Eye" - Sony LK 63420.
