Candy Man 

Candy man been here and gone 
Candy man been here and gone 
Candy man, 
salty dog 
If you can't be my Candy man you can't be my salty dog 
Candy man, candy man 
Candy man, fattin' hog 
Candy man, Santa Claus 
If you can't be my candy man, can't be my fattin' hog 
Candy man, candy man 
Candy man, been here and gone 
Candy man, salty dog 
I wish I was in New Orleans, sitting on the candy stand 
Run get the pitcher, get the baby some beer 
Run get the pitcher, get the baby some beer 
Run get the pitcher, get the baby some beer 
Run get the pitcher, get the baby some beer 
Run get the pitcher, get the baby some beer 
Run get the pitcher, get the baby some beer 
I'd give anything in this god almighty world 
To get my Candy man home 
Candy man, salty dog 
Candy man, fattin' hog 
Candy man, salty dog 
If you can't be my Candy man 
You can't be my man at all
