Verse 1

I sat down at counter with the menu in my hand
When I saw what was behind it I hit a grand slam

Chorus

I saw my soda fountain baby (soda fountain baby)
I saw my soda fountain baby (soda fountain baby)
I saw the girl who keeps the ice cream and now it's I who scream for her

Verse 2

She asked me can I help you and what flavor would you like
G N.C.
Just the way she said it got me higher than a kite

Chorus

I saw my soda fountain baby (soda fountain baby)
I saw my soda jerkin' baby (soda jerkin' baby)
I saw the girl who keeps the ice cream and now it's I who scream for her

Verse 3

By the time she brought my sundae I could not eat a bite
I let it drip all over as I stared with all my might

Chorus

At my soda fountain baby (soda fountain baby)
That's my milk shakin' mama (milk shakin' mama)
I saw the girl who keeps the ice cream and now it's I who scream for her

Bridge

Strawberry, raspberry, chocolate nut fudge
Bananas and some whipped cream couldn't make me budge
Maraschino cherries sittin' on the top
Even some spumoni couldn't get me from that shop
But then I had a root beer  
D N.C.
As I paid my check I wondered, heck would she ever call me dear
I saw the girl who keeps the ice cream and now it's I who scream for her

Verse 4

Well, luckily I hung around until she got off work
Later we got married and had a bunch of little jerks

Chorus

That's my soda jerkin' mama (soda jerkin' mama)
That's my milk shakin' motha' (milk shakin' motha')
I saw the girl who keeps the ice cream and now it's I who scream for her

Bridge

Strawberry, raspberry, chocolate nut fudge
Bananas and some whipped cream couldn't make me budge
Maraschino cherries sittin' on the top
Even some spumoni couldn't get me from that shop
And then I had a root beer  
D N.C.
As I paid my check I wondered, heck would she ever call me dear
I saw the girl who keeps the ice cream and now it's I who scream for herrrrrrrrr 
Next time you're hungry take my advice
Try the soda fountain, it could be just as nice
It could be just as nice, it could be just as nice
