About The Song

The Chordettes’ “Lollipop” is a pop song written by Julius Dixson and Beverly Ross in 1958. Initially recorded by Ronald & Ruby, then covered by The Chordettes, whose version reached No. 2 in the US and gained popularity among barbershop singers. It reached No. 3 on the R&B chart and No. 6 in the UK, marking their highest-charting song in the UK. The Chordettes’ rendition of “Lollipop” included rhythmic hand claps at the beginning and a distinctive popping sound, created by one of the Chordettes putting her finger into her mouth and flicking it out.

Initially appearing as a song about innocent love and candy, “Lollipop” holds a deeper meaning beyond its cheerful melody and playful lyrics. The lyrics describe endearingly sweet qualities of the singer’s lover. The song’s catchy melody and charming lyrics contributed to its success, making it one of The Chordettes’ most iconic songs.

Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop!
Bom bom bom bom

Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop!
Bom bom bom bom

Call my baby lollipop
Tell you why
His kiss is sweeter than an apple pie
And when he does his shaky rockin’ dance
Man, I haven’t got a chance

I call him
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop!

Sweeter than candy on a stick
Huckleberry, cherry or lime
If you had a choice
He’d be your pick
But lollipop is mine

Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop!
Bom bom bom bom

Crazy way he thrills me
Tell you why
Just like a lightning from the sky
He loves to kiss me ’til I can’t see straight
Gee my lollipop is great

I call him
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop!
Bom bom bom bom

Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop lollipop
Oh lolli lolli lolli
Lollipop!
A-Lollipop!
