I left home when i was only seventeen
|
Met a guy, he and i
|
Drove down to new orleans
|
He seemed to know his way around
|
And i thought i could last
|
The sweet-talkin', oh,
|
C-c-c-candyman
|
|
Warmed his bed
|
Kept him fed
|
And oh i loved him so
|
Thought i had to cry alot
|
Whenever he would go
|
I guess i was just too young
|
To really understand
|
A sweet-talkin' ooooooh,
|
C-c-c-candyman!!!
|
|
Sweet talking candyman
|
My sweet talking
|
Sweet talking candyman
|
I hear you talking!
|
|
He played around
|
And brought me down
|
And finally threw me out
|
I got burned
|
But I learned
|
What life was all about
|
And i often think of him
|
Every now and then
|
A sweet-talkin', ooooooh,
|
C-c-c-candyman
|
|
Sweet talking candyman
|
My sweet talking
|
Sweet talking candyman
|
I hear you talking ...
