Songtexte Candyman (Live at the Capitol Theatre, Port Chester, NY, 2/18/71) - Grateful Dead
Come on you pretty women, with your hair a-hangin' down
Open up your windows 'cause the Candyman's in town
Come on, boys, and gamble
Roll those laughin' bones
Seven come eleven, boys, I'll take your money home
Look out, look out, the Candyman
Here he come and he's gone again
Pretty lady ain't got no friend
Till the Candyman comes around again
I come in from Memphis where I learned to talk the jive
When I get back to Memphis, be one less man alive
Good morning, Mr. Benson
I see you're doing well
If I had me a shotgun, I'd blow you straight to hell
Look out, look out, the Candyman
Here he come and he's gone again
Pretty lady ain't got no friend
Till the Candyman comes home again
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh)
Ooh-ooh, hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (ooh, uh-huh, hoo, ooh)
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (woh-oh, woh-oh-oh, oh)
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh (oh, oh-oh, oh)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ha, ha
Come on, boys, and gamble, if you have got the mind
If you've got a dollar, boys, lay it on the line
Hand me my old guitar
Pass the whiskey around
Won't you tell everybody you meet that the Candyman's in town
Look out, look out, the Candyman
Here he come and he's gone again
Pretty lady ain't got no friend
Till the Candyman comes around again
Look out, look out, the Candyman
Here he come and he's gone again
Pretty lady ain't got no friend
Till the Candyman comes around again
What's that?
–The monitor's still work
We're gonna check and see if our monitors are still working
It's some question in our minds
Monitors, so– hmm, monitor (yeah)
Well, if, ah, it seems to work and I–
I'll check yours if you'll check mine (It works now but)
I can never hear it while we're playing
I wonder if that means anything (hoo)
Hey, Bobby, see how much is comin' outta here, would ya?
Hoo, hoo, hoo
Well, you guys wanna– I got one
They turned down the signal
