Lyrics

Oh, the buzzin' of the bees and the cigarette trees The soda water fountain Where the lemonade springs and the bluebird sings In that Big Rock Candy Mountain On a summer's day in the month of May A burly bum come a hikin' Down a shady lane, through the sugar cane He was looking for his likin' As he strolled along he sang a song of the land of milk and honey Where a bum can stay for many a day And he won't need any money Oh, the buzzin' of the bees and the cigarette trees The soda water fountain Where the lemonade springs and the bluebird sings In that Big Rock Candy Mountain In the Big Rock Candy Mountain The cops have wooden legs The bulldogs all have rubber teeth And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs The farmers' trees are full of fruit The barns are full of hay I want to go where there ain't no snow Where the sleet don't fall, and the wind don't blow In that Big Rock Candy Mountain Oh, the buzzin' of the bees and the cigarette trees The soda water fountain Where the lemonade springs and the bluebird sings In that Big Rock Candy Mountain Oh, the buzzin' of the bees and the cigarette trees The soda water fountain Where the lemonade springs and the bluebird sings In that Big Rock Candy Mountain
