about

During the summer, in our neighborhood, the ice cream truck makes frequent early evening stops, much to the delight of the children. Lola felt inspired by it one afternoon and we recorded this song. The other day I asked Lola what she meant by "Ding, Dong, Ding!" and she said it was supposed to be the music that the ice cream truck plays. Recorded August 26, 2011.

lyrics

once I went to the ice cream truck
I got my favorite ice cream
it wasn't just one flavor
it was a hundred more
like cookie dough
vanilla
chocolate
strawberry

and I love the ice cream truck
I love it so good
the ice cream truck is really yummy
what do you like to have?
I scream for ice cream
you love ice cream
I scream, you scream
we all scream
for ice cream

it's so fun
it's so yummy
something to have after dinner
you know that you can get ice cream in different ways
in different kinds of flavors
all the time
once we got this really good ice cream
that it is strawberry cheese cake
that ice cream is really good
but nothing's better than ice cream truck ice cream

Pear: My favorite flavor is all of the flavors
I love any kind of flavor

Strawberry: I love vanilla and strawberry
Pear loves mint chocolate chip

and if you get the ice cream
from the ice cream truck
I will get any flavor
because you get really good flavors
because they're really really yummy ice creams

Strawberry: and I also like a Screwball too
cause they're really yummy to chew
yay! Yay! ice cream truck
but now it's time to go home

DING, DONG, DING!

get some ice cream if you want to
at the ice cream truck for you
