Performed by Harry McClintock
2
One evening as the sun went down
3
And the jungle fires were burning,
4
Down the track came a hobo hiking,
5
And he said, "Boys, I'm not turning
6
I'm headed for a land that's far away
7
Besides the crystal fountains
8
So come with me, we'll go and see
9
The Big Rock Candy Mountains"
10
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains,
11
There's a land that's fair and bright,
12
Where the handouts grow on bushes
13
And you sleep out every night
14
Where the boxcars all are empty
15
And the sun shines every day
16
On the birds and the bees
17
And the cigarette trees
18
The lemonade springs
19
Where the bluebird sings
20
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
21
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
22
All the cops have wooden legs
23
And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth
24
And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs
25
The farmers' trees are full of fruit
26
And the barns are full of hay
27
Oh I'm bound to go
28
Where there ain't no snow
29
Where the rain don't fall
30
The winds don't blow
31
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
32
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
33
You never change your socks
34
And the little streams of alcohol
35
Come trickling down the rocks
36
The brakemen have to tip their hats
37
And the railway bulls are blind
38
There's a lake of stew
39
And of whiskey too
40
You can paddle all around em
41
In a big canoe
42
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
43
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains,
44
The jails are made of tin.
45
And you can walk right out again,
46
As soon as you are in.
47
There ain't no short-handled shovels,
48
No axes, saws or picks,
49
I'ma goin' to stay
50
Where you sleep all day,
51
Where they hung the Turk
52
That invented work
53
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
54
I'll see you all this coming Fall
55
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
O Brother were art thou " candy mountain...
