[00:10.05]Oh the buzzin' of the bees
[00:11.82]in the cigarette trees
[00:13.53]The soda water fountain
[00:16.38]where the lemonade springs
[00:18.18]And the bluebird sings in that
[00:20.04]Big Rock Candy Mountain
[00:25.59]On a summer day
[00:27.24]In the month of May
[00:28.86]A burly bum came ahiking
[00:31.32]Down a shady lane
[00:33.27]Through the sugar cane
[00:34.56]He was looking for his liking
[00:37.62]As he strolled along
[00:39.48]He sang a song
[00:40.77]Of the land of milk and honey
[00:43.59]Where a bum can stay
[00:45.27]For many a day
[00:47.07]And he won't need any money
[00:49.11]Oh the buzzin' of the bees
[00:49.56]in the cigarette trees
[00:50.10]The soda water fountain
[00:50.61]where the lemonade springs
[00:51.27]And the bluebird sings in that
[00:51.90]Big Rock Candy Mountain
[00:52.83]In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
[00:53.46]The cops have wooden legs
[00:54.00]The bulldogs all have rubber teeth
[00:54.78]And the hens lay soft boiled eggs
[00:55.44]The farmers' trees are full of fruit
[00:56.19]The barns are full of hay
[00:56.70]I want to go where there ain't no snow
[00:57.39]Where the sleet don't fall and the wind don't blow
[00:58.92]In that Big Rock Candy Mountain
[00:59.61]There's a lake of gin
[01:00.03]We can both jump in
[01:00.45]And the handouts grow on bushes
[01:01.11]In the new mown hay
[01:01.50]We can sleep all day
[01:02.01]And the bars all have free lunches
[01:02.73]Where the mail train stops
[01:03.27]And there ain't no cops
[01:03.75]And the folks are tender hearted
[01:04.47]Where you never change your socks
[01:05.22]And you never throw rocks
[01:05.76]And your hair is never parted
[01:06.45]Oh the buzzin' of the bees
[01:06.90]in the cigarette trees
[01:07.44]The soda water fountain
[01:08.31]where the lemonade springs
[01:10.20]And the bluebird sings in that
[01:11.19]Big Rock Candy Mountain
[01:11.73]Oh a farmer and his son
[01:12.33]They were on the run
[01:12.69]To the hay field they were bounding
[01:13.35]Said the bum to the son
[01:13.83]Why don't you come
[01:14.13]To that big rock candy mountain
[01:14.85]So the very next day
[01:15.81]They hiked away
[01:16.08]The mileposts they were counting
[01:16.77]But they never arrived
[01:17.34]At the lemonade tide
[01:17.76]On the big rock candy mountain
[01:18.78]Oh the buzzin' of the bees
[01:19.23]in the cigarette trees
[01:19.71]The soda water fountain
[01:20.34]where the lemonade springs
[01:20.91]And the bluebird sings in that
[01:21.54]Big Rock Candy Mountain
[01:22.08]One evening as the sun went down
[01:22.74]And the jungle fires were burning
[01:23.49]Down the track came a hobo hiking
[01:24.33]He said Boys I'm not turning
[01:25.32]I'm heading for a land that's far away
[01:26.10]Beside the crystal fountain
[01:26.73]I'll see you all this coming fall
[01:27.42]In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
[01:28.26]Oh the buzzin' of the bees
[01:28.71]in the cigarette trees
[01:29.22]The soda water fountain
[01:29.73]where the lemonade springs
[01:30.27]And the bluebird sings in that
[01:31.02]Big Rock Candy Mountain
[01:31.65]In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
[01:32.37]It's a land that's fair and bright
[01:33.09]The handouts grow on bushes
[01:33.69]And you sleep out every night
[01:34.47]The boxcars all are empty
[01:35.01]And the sun shines every day
[01:35.61]I'm bound to go
[01:35.91]Where there ain't no snow
[01:37.77]Where the sleet don't fall
[01:40.17]And the winds don't blow
[01:41.73]In the Big Rock Candy Mountain

[01:45.90]In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
[01:46.59]You never change your socks
[01:47.16]And little streams of alkyhol
[01:47.91]Come trickling down the rocks
[01:48.51]O the shacks all have to tip their hats
[01:49.53]And the railway bulls are blind
[01:50.22]There's a lake of stew
[01:50.61]And ginger ale too
[01:51.00]And you can paddle
[01:51.42]All around it in a big canoe
[01:52.05]In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
[01:52.77]Oh the buzzin' of the bees
[01:54.09]in the cigarette trees
[01:56.10]The soda water fountain

[02:12.69]In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
[02:13.32]The jails are made of tin
[02:13.80]You can slip right out again
[02:14.34]As soon as they put you in
[02:14.82]There ain't no short handled shovels
[02:15.60]No axes saws nor picks
[02:16.17]I'm bound to stay
[02:16.50]Where you sleep all day
[02:16.92]Where they hung the jerk
[02:17.34]That invented work
[02:17.79]In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
