Peppermint Jack

Hey Peppermint Jack hey Peppermint Jack
Hey Peppermint Jack your hair is gray
And your skin is black too old they say
So you got they sack
I recall that we used to buy
Peppermint from a lovely guy
He had worked for ice cream Joe
Till he was told he had to go
He said to himself this wise old man
Ice is gonna melt but peppermint can't
So he said to us when we came to school
Only peppermint really keeps you cool
Only peppermint really keeps you cool
Hey Peppermint Jack hey Peppermint Jack
Hey Peppermint Jack your hair is gray
And your skin is black too old they say
So you got they sack
Then one day he didn't appear
When we heard why we were in tears
Poor old Jack how little he earned
Went to the place of no return
With a piece of chalk we wrote on his stone
Ice is gonna melt but peppermint won't
Never more we heard when we came to school
Only peppermint really keeps you cool
Only peppermint really keeps you cool
Hey Peppermint Jack hey Peppermint Jack
Hey Peppermint Jack your hair is gray
And your skin is black too old they say
So you got they sack
Hey Peppermint Jack hey Peppermint Jack
Hey Peppermint Jack your hair is gray
And your skin is black too old they say
So you got they sack
Peppermint Peppermint Peppermint Jack
