Candy Man Blues

Well all you ladies gather 'round

That good sweet candy man's in town

It's the candy man

It's the candy man

He likes a stick of candy just nine inch long

He sells as fast a hog can chew his corn

It's the candy man

All heard what sister Johnson said

She always takes a candy stick to bed

Don't stand close to the candy man

He'll leave a big candy stick in your hand

He sold some candy to sister Bad

The very next day she took all he had

If you try his candy, good friend of mine

You sure will want it for a long long time

His stick candy don't melt away

It just gets better, so the ladies say
