Lyrics:

Behind the counter selling ice-cream
There stands a man the kids all know
He's got a smile that makes them love him
And they call him uncle Joe

[Verse 2]
Now he's been there for generations
And watching all the children grow
Mums and dads are his relations
Even they know uncle Joe

[Chorus 1]
Cherry, lemon, tangerine
He served ice-cream as though it were a rosy-eye
First he tucks it with a grin
Then he puts a tickle in and laughs

[Verse 3]
But then there's times when he remembers
The distant years of long ago
That's when he hears his family calling
Oh so faintly, uncle Joe

[Chorus 2]
Cherry, lemon, tangerine
He served ice-cream as though it were a rosy-eye
First he tucks it with a grin
Then he puts a tickle in and laughs
[Verse 4]
And if its time for celebration
Or if you've got a tale of woe
You'll find a friend around the corner
You just ask for uncle Joe

[Verse 5]
Behind the counter selling ice-cream
There stands a man the kids all know
He's got a smile that makes them love him
And they call him uncle Joe

[Outro]
Joe (Joe)
