On the Good Ship Lollipop

Rosemary Clooney (May 23, 1928 – June 29, 2002) was an American singer and actress. She came to prominence in the early 1950s with the novelty hit "Come On-a My House" written by William Saroyan and his cousin Ross Bagdasarian (better known as David Seville, the father figure of Alvin and the Chipmunks), which was followed by other pop numbers such as "Botch-a-Me" (a cover version of the Italian song Ba-Ba-Baciami Piccina by Alberto Rabagliati), "Mambo Italiano", "Tenderly", "Half as Much", "Hey There" and "This Ole House", although she had success as a jazz vocalist.

I've thrown away my toys, even my drum and train.
I wanna make some noise with real live aeroplanes. 
Some day I'm going to fly, I'll be a pilot too. 
And when I do, how would you like to be my crew?

On The Good Ship Lollipop. 
It's a sweet trip to a candy shop 
Where bon-bons play 
On the sunny beach of Peppermint Bay.

Lemonade stands everywhere 
Crackerjack bands fill the air 
And there you are 
Happy landing on a chocolate bar.

See the sugar bowl do the tootsie roll 
With the big bad devil's food cake. 
If you eat too much ooh-ooh 
You'll awake with a tummy ache.

On The Good Ship Lollipop 
It's a night trip into bed you hop 
And dream away 
On The Good Ship Lollipop.
