The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Candy Man

Candy man, he's been and gone

My Candy man, he's been and gone

My Candy man, he's been and gone

Now I love everything in this Godalmighty world, God knows I do.

Peppermint stick, got a little brass band

I got a peppermint stick, I got a little brass band

I got a peppermint stick, I got a little brass band

And I'm goin' down to the gate to score the Candy man stand.

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

'Cause I love everything in this Godalmighty world, God knows I do.

Candy man, he's been and gone

My Candy man and his name was John

My Candy man, he's Morocco bound

Now I'd give everything in this Godalmighty world to bring my Candy man home.

Black skin man, give me bad brew

Oh black skin man, give me bad brew

Oh black skin man, give me bad brew

Now I'd give everything in this Godalmighty world to bring me my Candy man home.

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

Run fetch a pitcher get the baby some beer

'Cause I love everything in this Godalmighty world, God knows I do.

Candy man, I love the man

Yeah my Candy man, he gets me high

My Candy man, yeah I love the man

And I'd give everything in this Godalmighty world to bring my Candy man home.
