I went with my mom to that old-time show.
I asked her, Please Mother, can I have a popsicle?
She said, Honey, you’re a sweetie,
You’re my chocolate cake,
I’ll get you one later, we’re gonna be late
Here’s a cucumber shake.
As the crowd started clapping,
We were already out.
And as the snack bar was closing
I was bursting into tears.
She said, Honey, you’re a sweetie,
You’re my apple pie,
I’ll get you one later, don’t be such a hater
Try pickles on rye.
I dream of treats,
Any kind of sweets,
They make me feel so wonderful.
Tell me what’s the use
Having a sweet tooth
I need that candy
now! now! now!
We found our way home,
We were worn down and beat.
By the fridge stood my father,
Ice cream dripping down his cheeks.
Mom said, Honey, you’re a sweetie, You’re my sour cream,
I’m tired, it’s late, here’s the kid, let her join you in on your sweet midnight sugar rush frenzy, I’m wishing you both sweet dreams.
I said, Mamma, you’re as sweet as honey,
I love you.
I said, Mamma, you’re as sweet as honey,
I love you.
Tomorrow morning I’ll make you a cucumber shake
I went with my mother to that old-time show
(I said that) I went with my Mama to that old-time show
She told me I’m a sweetie at that old-time show.
