Penny Candy Man
By Jove, I think we've got it all!!
credited to singer Jerry Lee Nelson
on the "The Count Counts!" album (see below)
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 pennies in your hand
Buy eight red balls of bubble gum
From the penny candy man
Eight cents will buy you eight licorice sticks
Whip and snap like rubber
Eight cents buys eight valentine hearts
That all say Hubba, hubba, hubba
Hubba, hubba, hubba, hubba, hubba
Eight cents will buy you eight jelly beans
Or eight candy slices of orange
Eight cents will buy you eight mints of green
Or eight corny candy corn
Eight penny lollypops, eight lemon drops
Everything looks so grand
From the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 penny candy man
(Whistle)
Penny candy man
"8"!
