Ice Cream Freezer - Roosevelt Sykes

My baby owns a ice cream freezer

She let’s me put my milk in her can

Mercy!

My baby owns a ice cream freezer

She let’s me put my milk in her can

Her freezer ain’t to be churned

By no other man

Some people crave vanilla or strawberry

But-a black walnut is all I love

Mercy!

Some people crave vanilla or strawberry

But-a black walnut is all I love

When I put my spoon in her freezer

Man, it fits just like a rubber glove

Mercy!

Now, she turns her freezer

So slow an easy

She said, 'Daddy can you hold back

And stick around? ' (I'll try, ha-ha)

As she turn her freezer

So slow an easy

She say, 'Now, daddy can you jus hold back

And stick around? '

I’ll say, I b’lieve you spoke jus a little too late

Pretty mama

I gotta let that flavor come runnin' down

'Mercy, mercy, man, yeah'

Ho, yeah!

'Let it roll on a while in the night'

'Ho, til the break of day'

'Ho, til the break of day'

'My, my, my, my'

'Ho while'

She said, 'Now, you done used my freezer

You said, 'Daddy, you look like

You gettin' ready to leave' (quite natural)

My, my She said, 'Now, you done uses my freezer

'Look like you gettin' ready to leave'

She said, 'But you’re still welcome to my can

When you have more cream to freeze'

More cream to freeze.
