Jolly Joe

This is a song/poem my friend Scott wrote. 
I transcribed it off my cell phone after several times of careful listening.
Has the feel of a blues tune.


Jolly Joe

Three wheels good
With the freezer behind
Same tune playing
All the time...

Pop goes the sicle
Putting up the hill
Kids on the back
Dripping green drool.

Lime is good
And cherry ain't bad
But the Sidewalk Sundaes
Best you ever had.

Missiles are good
Drumsticks are better
Fudgesicles rock
But creamsicles never
Creamsicles never.

Riding on the back
Of a three wheeled Joe
Same tune playing
I still don't know.

Popeye?
The weasel?
E-I-E-I-O?

Dripping orange drool
No more school
Creamsicles never
Til September
