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 sweep the floor and watch the telephone
She would send me out to get a chocolate ice cream cone
So i did, the things she said, and she made me some ginger bread
So i went out just me alone, to get my chocolate ice cream cone
Well a coming back i stumped my toe upon a big ole stone
I need not tell you that i dropped my chocolate ice cream cone
A little puppy came along and took a great big lick
And so i hit that mean ole dog with just a little stick
So he bit me were i set down and he chased me all over town
Now i'm lost can't find my home all because of a chocolote ice cream cone.
