Lemon Drop
Oh, I’d rather suck on a lemon drop
Than trust my luck with a lollipop
Cause a lollipop, I always drop
And it gets all over — icky.
Oh, I’ve tried and tried but still I can’t find
A lollipop that’s halfway refined;
Oh, I’d rather suck on a lemon drop
Than trust my luck with a lollipop
Cause a lollipop, I always drop
And it gets all over — icky.
ICKY, ICKY, ICKY — BLAA

i learned this a little differently but it’s been one of the heirlooms my kids have already inherited. i learned it at camp garaywa in mississippi. imagine 350 girls hollering this out in a small auditorium with a tin roof! It was memorable-You couldn’t help but memorize it!
My mother used to sing this song all the time. It goes like this:
Oh, I’d rather suck on a lemon drop
than to trust my luck with a lolly pop
With a lemon bean you’re always clean,
with a lolly pop all sticky
Oh, I hate the way that it sticks and smears,
It gets all over my hair and ears,
With a lemon bean you’re always clean,
with a lolly pop all sticky
I’ve tried and tried, but never could find
a lolly pop that was half way refined
I hate the way that it sticks and smears, it gets all over my hair and ears
With a lemon bean, you’re always clean,
with a lolly pop all sticky
That is a great version. Awesome.
