Candy Store

Can I take you back, take you back

Can I take you back, take you back girl

To the candy store, candy store, whoa

Can I take you back, take you back baby

Can I take you back, take you back girl

To the candy store, candy store whoa

I took a trip to where we used to live

The tree was still there we carved our names in as kids

[?] had a sign that said she don't live here no more

Went to the neighbors asked because [?]

You're the only one for me

Love's the only thing in life that is free

Now all I have left is just a memory

I remember when you were young,

Back in the days of bubble gum

And the only thing that mattered in life

Was the candy store, down on the corner

All the kids in the neighborhood,

Would get money from the parents if they were good

And we were good, we would all gather around at the candy store

Down on the corner

That's when I first saw you girl, yeah, yeah, yeah

Looking so sweet, I said, how do you do, at the candy store

Down on the corner

You were my girlfriend, I was your boyfriend [?]

I met you, at the candy store

I remember when you were young,

Back in the days of bubble gum

And the only thing that mattered in life

Was the candy store, down on the corner

All the kids in the neighborhood,

Would get money from the parents if they were good

And we were good, we would all gather around at the candy store

Down on the corner

[?] in the back, sunroof top, TV in the seat with the gangster lean

Holler at the shawty, with the afro puff

Light blue halter top with bell bottoms with tops

Hat to the back, tube socks to the knee

Me and my girlfriend, carved her name in the tree

We often fantasized about a life with me

Now all I have left is just a memory

Miss Mary Mac, Mac, Mac, all dressed in black, black, black

With silver buttons, buttons, buttons, all down her back, back, back

She asked her mother, mother, mother for fifteen cents, cents, cents

To see the elephants, elephants, elephants,

Jump over the fence, fence, fence

I remember when you were young,

Back in the days of bubble gum

And the only thing that mattered in life

Was the candy store, down on the corner

All the kids in the neighborhood,

Would get money from the parents if they were good

And we were good, we would all gather around at the candy store

Down on the corner

I remember when you were young,

Back in the days of bubble gum

And the only thing that mattered in life

Was the candy store, down on the corner

All the kids in the neighborhood,

Would get money from the parents if they were good

And we were good, we would all gather around at the candy store

Down on the corner

If you remember the candy store

Everybody clap your hands

If you remember the candy store and how it used to be

Just clap your hands

If you remember the candy store

And how it made you feel good

Close your eyes

If you remember the candy store

And wanna go back lemnme hear you say yeah
