I got her number off the bathroom wall Said her name was Candy Rose It took some courage just to make that call Roll the dice, you never know I got a checkered cab in seconds flat In minutes, I was climbing her gates She was looking down from her balcony Hangin' out all over the place
She said, "Hey, Sugar, have you been here before? Next time you come around, use the back door"
Kid in a candy store Everything and a little more Kid in a candy storе Flat sixty-nine on the second floor, yеah
Went inside, my brain was fried From working swing shifts all week long I needed company, a little fantasy The situation was clearly on She had raven hair and ruby lips And the body of a movie star Till she held out her hand, said, "Do you understand? It's two grand and your new guitar"
I said, "Hey, Sugar, I've been here before But next time I come, I'll use the back door"
Kid in a candy store Everything and a little more Kid in a candy store Suite sixty-nine on the seventh floor, oh Yeah
Take my money to the [?] , baby
An empty wallet makes an empty heart As a penny dropped to the floor All my wages are in your dresser drawer But I always come Back for more
Kid in a candy store Everything and just a little more Kid in a candy store Flat sixty-nine on the second floor Kid in a candy store Everything and just a little bit more Kid in a candy store Suite sixty-nine on the seventh, seventh floor
Candy store, candy store, candy store Want a little more Candy store, candy store, candy store On the seventh floor Candy store, candy store, candy store Yeah, I want a little more Candy store, candy store, candy store Open up your door, yeah Candy Rose
