(Hey, Candy man)
Alright everybody gather 'round 
The Candy Man is here
What kind of candy do you want
Sweet choc'late 
Choc'late malted candy 
Gum drops
Anything you want
You've come to the right man
'Cause I'm the Candy Man

Who can take a sunrise (who can take a sunrise)
Sprinkle it with dew (sprinkle it with dew)
Cover it with choc'late and a miracle or two 
The Candy Man (the Candy Man)
Oh, the Candy Man can (the Candy Man can) 
The Candy Man can 
'Cause he mixes it with love 
And makes the world taste good 
(Makes the world taste good) 

Who can take a rainbow (who can take a rainbow)
Wrap it in a sigh (wrap it in a sigh) 
Soak it in the sun and make a groovy lemon pie 
The Candy Man (the Candy Man)
The Candy Man can (the Candy Man can) 
The Candy Man can 
'Cause he mixes it with love 
And makes the world taste good 
(Makes the world taste good) 

(The Candy Man makes everything he bakes) 
(Satisfying and delicious) 
Now you talk about your childhood wishes 
You can even eat the dishes 

Oh, who can take tomorrow (who can take tomorrow) 
Dip it in a dream (dip it in a dream) 
Separate the sorrow and collect up all the cream 
The Candy Man (the Candy Man)
Oh, the Candy Man can (the Candy Man can)

'Cause he mixes it with love 
And makes the world taste good
