Uncle Joe the Ice Cream Man

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Behind the counter selling ice-cream There stands a man the kids all know He's got a smile that makes them love him And they call him Uncle Joe Hello, hello, hello [Verse 2] Now, he's been there for generations And watching all the children grow Mums and dads are his relations Even they know Uncle Joe Hello, hello, hello [Chorus] Cherry, lemon, tangerine He served ice-cream as though it were a rosy-eye First, he tucks it with a grin Then he puts a tickle in and laughs [Verse 3] But then there's times when he remembers The distant years of long ago That's when he hears his family calling Oh so faintly, Uncle Joe [Chorus] Cherry, lemon, tangerine He served ice-cream as though it were a rosy-eye First, he tucks it with a grin Then he puts a tickle in and laughs [Verse 4] And if it's time for celebration Or if you've got a tale of woe You'll find a friend around the corner You just ask for Uncle Joe [Verse 5] Behind the counter selling ice-cream There stands a man the kids all know He's got a smile that makes them love him And they call him Uncle Joe [Outro] Joe (Joe) Joe (Joe) Joe (Joe) Joe (Joe) Joe (Joe)
