Introdução:
C
One evening as the sun went down
F C
And the jungle fires were burning,
C
Down the track came a hobo hiking,
F C
And he said, "Boys, I'm not turning
F C F C
I'm headed for a land that's far away
C G
Besides the crystal fountains
C
So come with me, we'll go and see
F C
The Big Rock Candy Mountains
C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains,
F C
There's a land that's fair and bright,
F C
Where the handouts grow on bushes
F G
And you sleep out every night.
C
Where the boxcars all are empty
F C
And the sun shines every day
F C
And the birds and the bees
F C
And the cigarette trees
F C
The lemonade springs
F C
Where the bluebird sings
G C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.
C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
F C
All the cops have wooden legs
F C
And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth
F G
And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs
C
The farmers' trees are full of fruit
F C
And the barns are full of hay
F C
Oh I'm bound to go
F C
Where there ain't no snow
F C
Where the rain don't fall
F C
The winds don't blow
G C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.
C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
F C
You never change your socks
F C
And the little streams of alcohol
F G
Come trickling down the rocks
C
The brakemen have to tip their hats
F C
And the railway bulls are blind
F C
There's a lake of stew
F C
And of whiskey too
F C
You can paddle all around it
F C
In a big canoe
G C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains,
F C
The jails are made of tin.
F C
And you can walk right out again,
F G
As soon as you are in.
C
There ain't no short-handled shovels,
F C
No axes, saws nor picks,
F C
I'm bound to stay
F C
Where you sleep all day,
F C
Where they hung the jerk
F C
That invented work
G C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.
F C F C
I'll see you all this coming fall
G C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
