Big Rock Candy Mountain Tab uke di Harry McClintock

One evening as the sun went down and the jungle fires were burning

 C
Down the track came a hobo hiking, and he said, "Boys, I'm not turning

I'm headed for a land that's far away beside the crystal fountains

    C                                           G7    C
So come with me, we'll go and see the Big Rock Candy Mountains

1.  In the Big Rock Candy Mountains there's a land that's fair and bright
2. In the Big Rock Candy Mountains all the cops have wooden legs
3. In the Big Rock Candy Mountains you never change your socks
4. In the Big Rock Candy Mountains the jails are made of tin

1. Where the handouts grow on bushes and you sleep out every night
2. And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth and the hens lay soft-boiled eggs
3. And the little streams of alcohol come trickling down the rocks
4. And you can walk right out again as soon as you are in

             C                             F                C
1. Where the boxcars all are empty and the sun shines every day
2. The farmers' trees are full of fruit and the barns are full of hay
3. The brakemen have to tip their hats and the railroad bulls are blind
4. There ain't no short-handled shovels, no axes, saws nor picks

           F            C            F         C
1. On the birds and the bees and the cigarette trees
2. Oh I'm bound to go where there ain't no snow
3. There's a lake of stew and of whiskey too
4. I'm bound to stay where you sleep all day

       F        C                 F        C
1. The lemonade springs where the bluebird sings
2. Where the rain don't fall and the winds don't blow
3. You can paddle all around them in a big canoe
4. Where they hung the jerk that invented work
