Well I'm keeping off the streets since you came to town

Since you claimed my heart from the lost and found

I have said goodbye to my fooling around

Now you and me babe we got candy by the pound

You and me babe we got candy by the pound



Well I never knew it could feel so good

Be the king of the hill in my neighbourhood

Rain on my roof what a sweet sound

Oh with you underneath it's like candy by the pound

With you underneath it's like candy by the pound



You can tell everybody that this girl of mine

Is sweeter than the grapes hanging from the vine

Love like wine honey drinking till I drown

Keep it coming baby like candy by the pound



Oh no what's come over me

If I am dreaming then let me sleep

Oh wow I'm heaven bound

Love is getting sweeter than candy by the pound



Now I'm ducking in the alley of common sense

Hiding from the claws of my old girl friend

She's screaming murder beating my door down

While I'm right behind it I'm eating candy by the pound

I'm right behind it eating I'm candy by the pound
