Chorus:
D D G D
A7 D(G) A7 D
D A7 D A7
1.On a summer day in the month of May
D A7 D
a burly bum came hiking
D A7 D A7
Down a shady lane through the sugar cane
D A7 D
He was looking for his liking
A7 D
As he roamed along he sang a song
A7 D
of the land of milk and honey
D A7 D A7
Where a bum can stay for many a day
D A7 D
And he won´t need any money
Chorus:
D
Oh the buzzin´of the bees in the cigarette trees
G D
and the soda water fountain
A7 D
At the lemonade springs where the bluebird sings
(G) A7 D
On the big rock candy mountain
2.There´s a lake of gin we can both jump in
And the handouts grow on bushes
In the new-mown hay we can sleep all day
And the bars all have free lunches
Where the mail train stops and there ain´t no cops
and the folks are tender-hearted
Wher you never change your socks and rocks
And your hair is never parted
Chorus:....
3.Oh,a farmer and his son,they were on the run
to the hay field they were bounding
Said the bum to the son:"Why don´t you come
to that big rock candy mountain?"
So the very next day they hiked away
the mile posts they kept counting
But they never arrived at the lemonade tide
on the big rock candy mountain...
Chorus:...
