TOMMY'S GELATO TRUCK
Down by the seaside every sunny afternoon
Tommy's gelato truck would play the Greensleeves tune
And when we heard that magic sound come into range
We'd run real fast to our mums and dads
And beg them for some change
Tommy's gelato truck, Tommy's gelato truck
Heaven rolls along the bay every day
Tommy's gelato truck, Tommy's gelato truck
Yeah his ice cream cones will bring you there
All we could think about while splashing in the foam
Was Tommy's gelato, it's like beach balls on a cone
And when we saw his truck we'd chase it down with glee
We'd make him stop then we'd lick it up
And jump back in the sea
Tommy's gelato truck, Tommy's gelato truck
Heaven rolls along the bay every day
Tommy's gelato truck, Tommy's gelato truck
Yeah his ice cream cones will bring you there
Strawberry, chocolate chip and wondrous custard cream
Looking back it seems just like a dream
Now we're all grown up we love to go back there
And Tommy still comes by with his delicious wares
I stop and ask him for gelato cones for two
His creamy ice tastes twice as nice
Since I fell in love with you
Tommy's gelato truck, Tommy's gelato truck
Heaven rolls along the bay every day
Tommy's gelato truck, Tommy's gelato truck
Yeah his ice cream cones will bring you there
