Jerry Garcia
Candyman (Live at Hampton Coliseum, Hampton, VA, October 8, 1989)
[Verse 1]
Come on all you pretty women
With your hair hanging down
Open up your windows
'Cause the Candyman's in town
Come on...
If you've got a dollar...
[Chorus]
Look out, look out, the Candyman
Here he come and he's gone again
Pretty lady ain't got no friend
'Til the Candyman comes around again
[Verse 2]
I come in 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
You know I'd blow you straight to hell
[Chorus]
Look out, look out, the Candyman
Here hе come and he's gone again
Prеtty lady ain't got no friend
'Til the Candyman comes around again
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
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 Candyman's in town
[Chorus]
Look out, look out, the Candyman
Here he come and he's gone again
Pretty lady ain't got no friend
'Til the Candyman comes around again
[Outro]
Look out, look out, the Candyman
Here he come and he's gone again
Pretty lady ain't got no friend
'Til the Candyman comes around again
