I heard an old familiar sound <br />Just on the other day, <br />Which started me to thinking <br />In a nostalgic way. <br /> <br />Ringing through the neighborhood <br />Was the delightful tune. <br />I found me patting both my feet. <br />It made me want me want to croon. <br /> <br />Such sound, so gentle and so sweet, <br />And so very mild, <br />Took me back to the days <br />When I was just a child. <br /> <br />With favorite treats less than a buck, <br />‘Twas the sound of the ice cream truck. <br /> <br />Refrain: <br />The ice cream truck. <br />The ice cream truck <br />Everybody loves <br />The ice cream truck. <br />A sound that never runs amok— <br />The sound of the ice cream truck. <br />©<br /><br />Walterrean Salley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ice-cream-truck-ballad/
