Come all you pretty women with your hair a hangin'd own,
Open up your windows 'cause the Candyman's in town.
Come on boys and gamble, roll those laughing bones,
Seven come eleven, boys, I'll take your money home.
Look out, look out, the Candyman,
Here he c ome and he's g one again,
Pretty lady ain't g ot no friend 'til
The Candyman comes ar ound again.
I come in from Memphis where I learned to talk the jive,
When I get back to Memphis, there'll be one less man a live.
Good mornin', Mr. Benson, I see you're doing well,
If I had me a shotgun, I'd blow you straight to hell.
Look out, look out, the Candyman,
Here he c ome and he's g one again,
Pretty lady ain't g ot no friend 'til
The Candyman comes ar ound again.
Solo :
Hoo... hoo... hoo... hoo...
Hoo... hoo... hoo... hoo...
Hoo... hoo... h oo... hoo...
Hoo... hoo... h oo... hoo...
Come on boys and wager if you have got the mind,
If you've got a dollar, boys, then lay it on the line.
Hand me my old guitar, pass the whiskey ' round,
Won't you tell everybody you meet
That the Candyman's in town.
Look out, look out, the Candyman,
Here he c ome and he's g one again,
Pretty lady ain't g ot no friend 'til
The Candyman comes ar ound again.
Look out, look out, the Candyman,
Here he c ome and he's g one again,
Look out, look out, the Candyman,
Here he c ome and he's g one again,
