Lyrics

[Verse 1] Come on you pretty women With your hair hanging down Open up your windows 'Cause the Candyman's in town Come on, boys, and gamble Roll those laughing bones Seven come eleven, boys I'll take your money home [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 onе less man alive Good morning, Mr. Benson I see you'rе doing well If I had me a dollar I'd blow you straight to hell [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 [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Oh, oh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Pretty lady ain't got no friend 'Til the Candyman comes around again [Verse 3] Come on, boys, and gamble If you have got the time 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 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
