Jonathan Richman Ice Cream Man Lyrics

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, 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 chime
In the afternoon so fine.
