My Boy Lollipop
"My Boy Lollipop" (originally "My Girl Lollypop") is a song written in the mid-1950s by Robert Spencer of the doo-wop group The Cadillacs, and usually credited to Spencer, Morris Levy, and Johnny Roberts. It was first recorded in New York in 1956 by Barbie Gaye. A later version, recorded in 1964 by Jamaican teenager Millie Small, with very similar rhythm, became one of the top-selling ska songs of all time.

Lyrics
You made my heart go giddy up
You are as sweet as candy
You're my sugar dandy
Ha, ho my boy lollipop
You never ever leave me
Because it would grieve me
My heart told me so
I love ya, I love ya, I love ya so
But I want ya to know
I need ya, I need ya, I need ya so
And I'll never let you go
My boy lollipop
You make my heart go giddy up
You set the world on fire
You are my one desire
Oh, my lollipop
Oh, I love ya, I love ya, I love ya so
But I want ya to know
I need ya, I need ya, I need ya so
And I'll never let you go
My boy lollipop
You make my heart go giddy up
You set the world on fire
You are my one desire
Ha, ho my boy lollipop
You never ever leave me
Because it would grieve me
My heart told me so
Oh, my boy lollipop
You make my heart go giddy up
You set the world on fire
you are my one desire
My lollipop
My boy lollipop
My lollipop
Love ya, love ya, lollipop
Yeah, my lollipop
Oh, my lollipop
