Joel Mabus Big Rock Candy Mountain Lyrics

Big Rock Candy Mountain Lyrics

[spoken]

Man comes in this life naked and bare

He walks through this
world with troubles and care

When he departs, we dont know where

But
hell be alright there if he does right here



Theres a big rock candy
mountain in a land thats fair and bright

The handouts grow on bushes and
you can sleep out every night

The boxcars all run empty and the railroad
bulls are blind

Oh, Im bound to go where there aint no snow

Where
the rain dont fall and the wind dont blow

Up the big rock candy
mountain



Oh, the buzzing of the bees in the cigarette trees, 

And the soda water fountains

The lemonade springs where the bluebird
sings

Up the big rock candy mountain



Up the big rock candy
mountain, the cops have wooden legs

The bulldogs all have rubber teeth,
