Candyman Lyrics - The Attic Tapes - John Renbourn

From the album fairytale 

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 some bad brew 

Oh black skin man give me some bad brew 

Oh black skin man give me some 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 the 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.
