Burl Ives - Lollipop Tree lyrics

One fine day in early spring, I played a funny trick Right in the yard behind our house, I planted a lollipop stick And everyday I watered it well and watched it carefully I hoped one day that stick would grow to be a lollipop tree Ha, ha, ha Ho, ho, ho Oh what a sight to see In my lollipop, lollipop, lolli, lolli, lollipop tree Chorus: Ha, ha, ha Ho, ho, ho What a sight to see Me and my lollipop, lollipop, lolli, lolli, lollipop tree Then one day I woke to find a very lovely sight A tree all full of lollipops had grown in the dark of the night I sat beneath that wonderful tree and looked up with a grin And when I opened up my mouth a pop would drop right in Ha, ha, ha Ho, ho, ho What a place to be Under the lollipop, lollipop, lolli, lolli, lollipop tree (chorus) Winter came and days grew cold as winter days will do On my tree, my lovely tree, not one little lollipop grew From every branch an icicle hung, the twigs were bare as bones But when I broke the icicles off, they turned to ice cream cones Ha, ha, ha Ho, ho, ho How my eyes could believe Under the lollipop, lollipop, lolli, lolli, lollipop tree Ha, ha, ha Ho, ho, ho What a sight to see Me and my lollipop, lollipop, lollipop, lollipop, tree!
