The Irish Rovers - The Lollipop Tree lyrics

One fine day in early spring I played a funny trick Laid in a yard behind our house I planted a lollipop stick and everyday I watered it well, I watched it carefully I hoped one day that stick would grow to be a lollipop tree Ha ha-ha, Ho-ho-ho What a place to be Under a lollipop, lollipop, lollipop, lolli-lolli-lollipop tree Under a lollipop, 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 den of night So I sat beneath that wonderful tree, I looked up with a grin And when I opened up my mouth a lollipop dropped right in Ha ha-ha, Ho-ho-ho What a place to be Under a lollipop, lollipop, lollipop, lolli-lolli-lollipop tree Under a lollipop, lollipop, lollipop, lolli-lolli-lollipop tree 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 limbs were bare as bones But when I broke the icicles off they turned to ice cream cones Ha ha-ha, Ho-ho-ho What a place to be Under a lollipop, lollipop, lollipop, lolli-lolli-lollipop tree Under a lollipop, lollipop, lollipop, lolli-lolli-lollipop tree
