Big Rock Candy Mountain Lyrics
Big Rock Candy Mountain (糖果山) - Rex Trailer/The Playboys
On a summer day
In the month of may
A burly bum came ahiking
Down a shady lane
Through the sugar cane
He was looking for his liking
As he strolled along
He sang a song
Of the 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 in 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 farmers' trees are full of fruit
The barns are full of hay
I want to go where there ain't no snow
Where the wind don't blow
In that big rock candy mountain
Oh the buzzin' of the bees in the cigarette trees
The soda water fountain where the lemonade springs
And the bluebird sings in that big rock candy mountain
Oh a farmer and his son
They were on the run
To the hay field they were bounding
Said the bum to the son
Why don't you come
To that big rock candy mountain
So the very next day
They hiked away
The mileposts they were counting
But they never arrived
At the lemonade tide
On the big rock candy mountain
Oh the buzzin' of the bees in the cigarette trees
The soda water fountain where the lemonade springs
And the bluebird sings in that big rock candy mountain
