Here are the Sweet Gingerbread Man Lyrics:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Feel like I’m made out of gingerbread
Uh huh (uh huh), uh huh (uh huh)
Crumb pickin’ lip lickin’ gingerbread
Uh huh (uh huh), uh huh (uh huh)

Can’t think about rainy weather now
I’ve finally got myself together now
Fresh out of the pan, sweet gingerbread man
Fresh out of the pan, sweet gingerbread man

I’m twirlin’ a cane made of peppermint
Uh huh (uh huh), uh huh (uh huh)
Nice sticky hands, sticky peppermint
Uh huh (uh huh), uh huh (uh huh)
Spun sugary cloud I’m floatin’ on

Sun’s spreadin’ my suit of sugar coatin’ on
All tasty and tan, sweet gingerbread man
Fresh out of the pan, sweet gingerbread man
I’ve got a feelin’ wouldn’t trade for anything

For all the peas (for all the peas)
For all the greens (for all the greens)
For all the world, world
Ooh, baby

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Feel like I’m made out of gingerbread
Uh huh (uh huh), uh huh (uh huh)
Crumb pickin’ lip lickin’ gingerbread
Uh huh (uh huh), uh huh (uh huh)

Won’t think about rainy weather now
I’ve finally got myself together now
All tasty and tan, sweet gingerbread man
Fresh out of the pan, sweet gingerbread man
Fresh out of the pan, sweet gingerbread man
Fresh out of the pan, sweet gingerbread man
Fresh out of the pan, sweet gingerbread man

All tasty and tan, sweet gingerbread man
Fresh out of the pan, sweet gingerbread man
Gingerbread, gingerbread, gingerbread man
Fresh out of the pan, sweet gingerbread man
Sweet gingerbread man
Fresh out of the pan, sweet gingerbread man
