Candy Store Blues
Composer(s): Eddie Beal - Nick Castle - Herb Jefferies
Performer(s): Toni Harper; Maria Muldaur



Last night I dreamt that I owned a candy store
Last night I dreamt that I owned a candy store
Woke up this mornin' just like the day before

Got five pennies and I don't know what to do
Got five pennies and I don't know what to do
I need another nickel for the bubblegum I chew

There's a little wagon passin' 
Every afternoon at four
And the bells they start to ringin'
Every time they pass my door

Yes, I love him
I love that good, good humour man
He's got lots of frozen custard 
That's how this love began

He said, "Hey, little baby
If you didn't get enough
Don't you worry 'bout no money
You can put it on the cuff"

Yes, I love him
I love that good, good humour man
He's got lots of tutti-frutti
I could eat it by the can
