Tarzan and Jane were swingin' on a vine
Candyman, Candyman
Sippin' from a bottle of vodka double wine
Sweet sugar candy man [whispering]

I met him out for dinner on a Friday night
He really had me working up an appetite
He had tattoos up and down his arm
There's nothing more dangerous than a boy with charm
He's a one stop shop, makes the panties drop
He's a sweet-talkin', sugar coated candy man
A sweet-talkin', sugar coated candyman

Oh yeah

He took me to the Spider Club at Hollywood and Vine
We drank champagne and we danced all night
We shook the paparazzi for a big surprise
The gossip tonight will be tomorrow's headline

He's a one stop shop, make my cherry pop
He's a sweet-talkin', sugar coated candy man
A sweet-talkin', sugar coated candyman

Sea boo be doo be bop bop
Hey yeah

He's a one stop shop, makes my cherry pop
He's a sweet-talkin', sugar coated candy man oh
A sweet-talkin', sugar coated candyman

Whoo yeah

Well by now I'm getting all bothered and hot
When he kissed my mouth he really hit the spot
He had lips like sugar cane
Good things come to boys who wait

Candy man can
Candy man Candy man
Tarzan and Jane were swingin' on a vine
Sipping from a bottle of vodka double wine
Candy man, candy man

Sweet sugar candy man
He's a one stop, gotcha hot, making all the panties drop
Sweet sugar candy man 
He's a one stop, got me hot, making my uh pop
Sweet sugar candy man 
He's a one stop, get it while it's hot, baby don't stop
Sweet sugar candy man 

He got those lips like sugar cane
Good things come for boys who wait

He's a one stop shop with a real big aeh
He's a sweet-talkin', sugar coated candyman
He's a sweet-talkin', sugar coated candyman
He's a sweet-talkin', sugar coated candyman

Tarzan and Jane were swingin' on a vine
Tarzan and Jane were swingin' on a vine
Sippin' from a bottle of vodka double wine
Sippin' from a bottle of vodka double wine
Jane lost her grip and a-down she fell
Jane lost her grip and a-down she fell
Squared herself away as she let out a yell
Squared herself away as she let out a yell
