Burl Ives Big Rock Candy Mountain Lyrics

Chorus:
Oh, the buzzin' of the bees and the cigarette trees
The soda water fountain where the lemonade springs
and the bluebird sings in that Big Rock Candy Mountain

On a summer's day in the month of May
A burly b__ come ahiking
Down a shady lane through the sugar cane
He was looking for his liking

As he strolled along he sang a song
Of the land of milk and honey
Where a b__ can stay for many a day
And he won't need any money

Chorus

In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
The cops have wooden legs
The bulldogs all have rubber teeth
And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs

The farmers' trees are full of fruit
The barns are full of hay
I want to go where there ain't no snow
Where the sleet don't fall and the wind don't blow
In that Big Rock Candy Mountain

Chorus ...
