Julie Gold's Candy Cane Tale - MoriArty

Julie Gold came out from South Virginia

She sang in her band and was broke with her gun

Until she found a fine fine man

He bought her a drink, they drove far from the sun

Well he made her open a candy store in town

He made her swear she would never sing a sound

He made her promise she would never leave this town

«Sell your candy or I’ll blow you down»

But Charlie Silver lived right around the corner

The first time he saw Julie

He wanted to D.I.E

'Cause he couldn’t pay for no sugar

Well men in the city they like their candy

Business is good, twenty four/seven

Man after man, the next after the last

Gold is tired, she’s starting to rust

I want to sing in my band again

But I’m too busy selling candy cane

I want to sing in my band again

But I’m too busy selling candy cane

So silver meets gold

And they sort of knew they had it coming

And pretty soon they starts loving and crying

The whole day long

Now they’re singing the whole day long

And they don’t know what’s right from wrong

Now they’re singing the whole day long

And they don’t know what’s right from wrong

Well men in the city they like their candy

But Julie is gone and the turkey is cold

The world gets round that the fine fine man

Can’t control his gold

So they hung him up and high

Sing «we want another candy cane kisser»

Is their rally cry

I want to sing in my band again

I won’t be selling candies for my man

I’m gonna sing in my band again

I won’t be selling candies for my man

I’m gonna sing in my band again

I won’t be selling candies for my man, no more
