Reser's Six Jumping Jacks, volume 2, The Old Masters, mb 128.
Oh!
I scream, you scream, we all scream
for ice cream!
In the land of ice and snows
Up among the Eskimos,
There's a college known as Ogiwawa!
You should hear those college boys,
Gee, they make an awful noise
When they sing an Eskimo tra-la-la!
They've got a leader, big cheer
leader,
Oh, what a guy!
He's got a frozen face just like
an Eskimo Pie!
When he says, "Come on, let's go!"
Though it's forty-five below,
This is what the Eskimos all holler:
I scream, you scream, we all scream
for ice cream!
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Tuesdays, Mondays, we all scream
for sundaes,
Sis-boom-bah!
Boola-boola, sarsaparoolla,
If you got chocolate, we'll take
vanoola!
I scream, you scream, we all scream
for ice cream!
Rah! Rah! Rah!
I scream, you scream, we all scream
for ice cream!
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Frosts and malts that are peppered
and salted,
Sis-boom-bah!
Oh, spumoni, oh, cartoni,
And confidentially, we'll take
baloney,
I scream, you scream, we all scream
for ice cream!
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah!
