Come on all you pretty women

With your hair a hanging down

Open up your windows

Cause the Candy man'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 Candy man

Here he comes and he's gone again

Pretty lady ain't got no friend till

The Candy man comes around again

I come from Memphis

Where I learned to talk the jive

When I get back to Memphis

Be one less man alive

Good morning 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 Candy man

Here he comes and he's gone again

Pretty lady ain't got no friend till

The Candy man comes around again

Come on boys and wager

If you have got the mind

If you've got a dollar

Boys lay it on the line

Hand me my old guitar

Pass the whiskey round

Won't you tell everybody you meet

That the Candy man's in town

Look out look out the Candy man

Here he comes and he's gone again

Pretty lady ain't got no friend till

The Candy man comes around again

Look out look out the Candy man

Here he comes and he's gone again
