My mama said if I'd be good she'd send me to the store

She said she'd bake some Gingerbread if I would sweep the floor

She said if I would make the bed and watch the telephone

That she would send me out to get a chocolate ice cream cone

And so I did the things she said and then she made some Gingerbread

Then I went out just me alone and got my chocolate ice cream cone

[ guitar ]

While coming back I stubbed my toe upon a big old stone

Now need I tell you that I droppedy chocolate ice cream cone

A little puppy came along and he took a great big lick

And then I hit that mean old dog with just a little stick

Then he bit me where I sit down and he chased me all over town

And now I'm lost I can't find my home

And all because of that chocolate ice cream cone

[ guitar ]

And all because of that chocolate ice cream cone

And all because of that chocolate chocolate chocolate ice cream cone
