In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
There's a land that's fair and bright
Where the handouts grow on bushes

And you sleep out ev'ry night
Where the boxcars are all empty
And the sun shines ev'ry day

Oh, I'm bound to go where there ain't no snow
Where the rain don't fall and the wind don't blow
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.

Oh, the buzzin' of the bees in the peppermint trees
'Round the soda water fountains
Where the lemonade springs and the bluebird sings

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
You never change your socks

And little streams of lemonade
Come a-tricklin' down the rocks
The hobos there are friendly

And their fires all burn bright
There's a lake of stew and soda, too
You can paddle all around 'em in a big canoe

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.
Oh, the buzzin' of the bees in the peppermint trees
'Round the soda water fountains

Where the lemonade springs and the bluebird sings
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
