"Big Rock Candy Mountain" lyrics - THE OKEE DOKEE BROTHERS

In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
There's a land that's fair and bright
Where butterscotch grows on bushes
And you can sleep out every night
Where the boxcars all are empty
And the sun shines every day
On the birds and the bees, and the peppermint trees
The lemonade springs, where the bluebird sings
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain

In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
All the bears have wooden legs
And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth
And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs
The farmers' trees are full of fruit
And the barns are full of hay
Oh I'm bound to go, where there ain't no snow
Where the rain don't fall, and the winds don't blow
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain

In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
You never change your socks
And the little streams of chocolate drops
Come a-trickling down the rocks
Your birthday comes 'round once a week
And it's summer all year long
There's a lake of stew, and marmalade too
You can paddle all around it in a big canoe
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
I'll see you all this coming fall
If it's free for one, then it's a free-for-all
In the Big Rock... Candy Mountain
