The Big Rock Candy Mountain

歌詞

One evening as the sun went down and the jungle fires were burnin' Down a track came a hobo hikin' He said boys I'm not turnin' I'm headed for the land that's far away beside the crystal fountain And I'll see you all this coming fall in the big rock candy mountains In the big rock candy mountains There's a land that's fair and bright The hand-outs grow on bushes And you sleep out every night The boxcars all are empty And the sun shines every day I'm bound to go where there ain't no snow Where the rain don't fall and the wind don't blow In the big rock candy mountains Oh, the buzzin' of the bees in the cigarette trees By the soda water fountain Where the lemonade springs and the bluebird sings In the big rock candy mountains In the big rock candy mountains you never wash your socks And little streams of alcohol come tricklin' down the rocks The boxcars all are empty The sun shines every day There's a lake of stew and ginger ale too And you can paddle all around it in a big canoe In the big rock candy mountains Oh, the buzzin' of the bees in the cigarette trees By the soda water fountain Where the lemonade springs and the bluebird sings In the big rock candy mountains In the big rock candy mountains the cops have wooden legs The bulldogs all have rubber teeth And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs There's no short handled shovels No axes, saws, or picks Well I'm bound to stay where you sleep all day Where they hung the jerk who invented work In the big rock candy mountains Oh, the buzzin' of the bees in the cigarette trees By the soda water fountain Where the lemonade springs and the bluebird sings In the big rock candy mountains
