Lyrics

Run and get the pitcher get the baby some beer
Well, I wish I was down in New Orleans
Drinking with my baby some beer
Candy man, salty dog
Well I do anything in this God almighty world
To keep my candy man home
Little red light, little green light
Well, stop on the red, and go on the green
Don't stop for Mister in between
Ginger bread man, Santa Claus
Well I wish I was down in New Orleans
To keep my candy man home
