Can I take you back I take you back
Can I take you back I take you back girl
To the candy store oh yeah
Can I take you back I take you back
Can I take you back I take you back girl
To the candy store candy store
I took a trip to where we used to live
A girl that name and asking
As the door had a sign that said she don't live here no more
Went to the neighbors asked because
You're the only one for me
Love is the only thing in life that will free
Now all I have left is just a memory
I remember when you were young
Back in the days
And the only thing that's better than life
Was the candy store down on the corner
All the kids in the neighborhood
Would get money from the parents if they were good
And we were good we would all gather around the candy store
Down on the corner
That's when I first saw you girl yeah yeah yeah
Looking so sweet I said how do you do at the candy store
Down on the corner
You were my girlfriend I was your boyfriend
I met you at the candy store
I remember when you were young
Back in the days
And the only thing that's better than life
Was the candy store down on the corner
All the kids in the neighborhood
Would get money from the parents if they were good
And we were good we would all gather around the candy store
Down on the corner
In the back sunroof top TV in the seat with the gangster lean
Holler at the shanty with the afro puff
Light blue halter top with bell bottoms with tops
Hat to the back tube socks to the knee
Me and my girlfriend carved her name in the tree
We often fantasized about a life with me
Now all I have left is just a memory
Miss Mary mac mac mac all dressed in black black black
With silver buttons buttons buttons all down
Her back back back
She asked her mother mother mother for 15 cents cents cents
To see the elephants elephants elephants
Jump over the fence fence fence
I remember when you were young
Back in the days of bubble gum
And the only thing that mattered in life
Was the candy store down on the corner
All the kids in the neighborhood
Would get money from the parents if they were good
And we were good we would all gather around at the candy store
Down on the corner
I remember when you were young
Back in the days of bubble gum
And the only thing that mattered in life
Was the candy store down on the corner
All the kids in the neighborhood
Would get money from the parents if they were good
And we were good we would all gather around at the candy store
Down on the corner
If you remember the candy store
Everybody clap your hands
If you remember the candy store and how it used to be
Just clap your hands
If you remember the candy store
And how it made you feel good
Close your eyes
If you remember the candy store
And wanna go back lemnme hear you say yeah
