"Candy Kitchen" lyrics - LIGHTNIN' HOPKINS

Well I don't work in no candy kitchen, Lord knows I don't stay on no chewin' gum
Well I don't work in no candy kitchen, Lord knows I don't stay on no chewin' gum
Yes, but 'til I know how to grab no pick and shovel and roll from town to town

I woke up this morning, saw the rain fallin' on the ground
I woke up this morning, saw the rain fallin' on the ground
I had to go to work on another job, way over 'cross town

It's an awful thing, just to hear her black man sing
It's an awful thing, just to hear her black man sing
You I done threw myself away, 'cause I don't have to work on the W.P.A.
