[D] One night just there the sun went down a bunch of thumbs were gabbin
They were seated around their jungle fire for the fast rain faded
[D] Grabbing [G] little Andy Lang of the Lakeshore [D] gang said boys
You know [A] I'm counting [D] each day and week until I see the big rock candy mountain
I'm a big rock candy mountain [G] where the skies are [D] always clear
[G] Where the whiskey flows [D] from fountains and it rains it rains [A] cold air
[D] Where the cornbees grows on bushes [G] where the sign bombs [D] welcome here
Oh the buzzing of the bees in the cigarette trees and the lemonade springs
Where the bluebird [A] sings on the big rock [D] candy mountains
[G]
[A] [D] On the big rock candy mountains [G] it's the only [D] place I know
[G] Where hotels [D] beg to feed you and they never take your [A] dough
Then they try to make you live there [G] cause they hate to [D] see you go
And they buy you wine so you have a day time and a little tummy ache
From a nice juicy steak on the big rock candy mountains
On the big rock candy mountains [G] all the cops [D] have wooden legs
[G] And the bulldogs all [D] have rubber tees and the hens lay [A] scrambled eggs
All [D] the orchards they are full of [G] fruit and the barns are [D] full of hay
[G] Indeed they got to go to the land of snow where they hung the Turk
Who invented a [A] work on the big rock [D] candy mountains
[G] [A] [D] On the big rock candy mountains [G] there's a cabaret [D] for bums
[G] Where you lean on [D] downy pillows while a hula [A] maiden strums
With a swell Jane right beside you [G] drinking up a [D] tub of mums
Keeping thousand dollar bills up green little hills
And your pookie's in a bin full of diamond pins
On the big rock candy mountains
On the big rock candy mountains [G] where there ain't much [D] work to do
[G] You'll be sleeping and [D] keep all seasons for no one will [Am] bother you
[D] All the folk wear padded slippers [G] and the sound of [D] Duke Taboo
No noise by the law but the happy bum snore or the bump of the head
As he falls out of [A] bed on the big rock [D] candy mountains
