Candy Man Lyrics – David Ackles
Singer: David Ackles
Title: Candy Man
Oscar saved his money
When he came home from the war
Traded in his good left hand
For payment on a store
He said, “I’m just as good as new!
Who needs more hands than one?”
The only men stood when he walked through
And proudly called him, “Son”
Oscar bought a candy store
In the nicest part of town
The called him the one-armed candy man
The crippled clown
And he wore their laughing, liquorice crown calling
“Come on down!”
Oscar laughed and waited
The loving, patient man
See the children trusting him?
Thе do not know his plan
He takes their coppеr pennies
He gives them extra treats
Hiding little picture books
In every bag of sweets
Last week a girl came crying home
“Look what I found today!
I got it from the candy man
Who’s giving them away.”
Her mother said, “Love is not that way
Dear God, he’ll pay!”
When the parents came for Oscar
He said, “I’m not ashamed
I took their minds as payment due
The healthy for the maimed.”
The day he went to prison
He called, “now do you see?
I only did to some of you
What you all did to me!”
Oh, no! I’m not the candy man
My injuries are few
But the world that made me what I am
Must owe me something too
And I only want what is my rightful due
From you and you
