Ice cream man, upon my street


Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers – Ice Cream Man

Hi there everybody
We’re the Modern Lovers
We’re gonna sing about the ice cream man for you

Well now, ice cream man, upon my street
I heard your truck outside, it’s really neat
Ice cream man, upon my block
Your little chimes, they reel and they rock

Ice cream man, ring your bell
Play the music, I’ve learned to love so well
Ice cream man, ring your chimes
In the afternoon so fine.

Ice cream man, upon my street
I heard your truck today, it was a-neat, a-neat, a-neat
Ice cream man, upon my block now,
Your chimes, your chimes they reel and rock

Now, ice cream man, upon my street
Your little truck, you know, is a-neat, neat
And ice cream man, upon my block,
I heard your chimes, I know they reel and they rock

Ice cream man, on my street
Your little truck, you know, is a-neat, a-neat, a-neat
Ice cream man, upon my block,
Your chimes, your chimes, they reel and rock

Ice cream man, upon my street,
You heard your truck today, it’s neat, neat
Ice cream man, ring your chimes
In the afternoon so fine.

One more time…

Ice cream man, ring your bell
Play the music, I’ve learned to love
Ice cream man, ring your chimes
In the afternoon so fine
