31 Jul 07 - 04:53 PM (#2115926) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The friendly man who sells Good Humor From: Cool Beans Thanks DAD. You're definitely on the right track. "Pure sweet cream and fresh fruit only" feels right but "guaranteed" just doesn't sound familiar. And "humour," while we're at it. |

01 Nov 17 - 09:06 AM (#3886185) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The friendly man who sells Good Humor From: GUEST,saulgoldie I sent an inquiry through the inquiry resource on the Good Humor website. I also discovered some lyrics other ones than above. (Different tune, too, probly.) And somewhere in there are some very racist lyrics and catch phrases. Also, there is apparently a movie. Wow! Folklore! It sure are instresting! Saul |

I had a Good Humor popsicle in one hand a money in the other. I asked the cashier if she knew the song. She didn't know they had one. Right in front of her and her customers I sang the first 2 lines. They were the only ones I remembers. I'm 75 now but when I was a kid I used to ride on the truck in the streets around my house in New Jersey. |

I'm 74 almost 75 and I'm also from New Jersey and that's the way I remember the song! |
