Big Rock Candy Mountain
Oh the buzzin' of the bees And the cigarette trees The soda water fountain Where the lemonade springs And the bluebird sings In that big rock candy mountain
On a summers day In the month of May A burly bum come hikin' Down a shady lane Near the sugar cane He was looking for his likin' As he strolled along He sung a song Of a land of milk and honey Where a bum can stay For many a day And he won't need any money
Oh the buzzin' of the bees And the cigarette trees The soda water fountain Where the lemonade springs And the bluebird sings In that big rock candy mountain
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain The cops have wooden legs The bulldogs all have rubber teeth And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs The farmer's trees are full of fruit The barns are full of hay I want to go where there ain't no snow Where the sleet don't fall And the wind don't blow In that big rock candy mountain
Oh the buzzin' of the bees And the cigarette trees The soda water fountain Where the lemonade springs And the bluebird sings In that big rock candy mountain
Oh the buzzin' of the bees At the cigarette trees The soda water fountain Where the lemonade springs And the bluebird sings In that big rock candy mountain
