Subject: Talking Candy Bar Blues problem From: jdgretz@hughes.com Date: 28 May 99 - 02:24 PM I pulled the lyrics from the data base but there is one verse that is missing some words - here is what is in the data base: I said "candy, son." He said "help!" And then he started to run. I stood there watching him go Half a bar of chocolate running down his fingers. Well the kid comes back in a minute or two But his mom's with him and the neighbors too. And they got the kid scared it's plain to see. urgh, 1827-9), 46, "Thomas o' Linn"; St. lair (Mansfield Obviously the "urgh, 1827-9), 46, "Thomas o' Linn"; St. lair (Mansfield" is not part of the song.

Bought a candy bar the other day,
Well the kid comes back in a minute or two
"Howdy Doody...y'all waitin' for the bus?
Well, some start pickin' up baseball bats
Well, they're comin' at me and I'm backin' away
Well I've had some troubled times before, |

Subject: RE: Talking Candy Bar Blues problem From: Susan A-R Date: 28 May 99 - 10:39 PM I have sheet music to that one. There's a great Tom Lehrer book out there. Too Many Songs By Tom Lehrer (and not enough drawings by . . .) It is worth having, and I've seen it recently. Susan

Subject: RE: Talking Candy Bar Blues problem From: John in Brisbane Date: 07 Jun 99 - 10:06 PM I have previously posted the tune to Poisoning Pigeons, which will appear in the databse sooner or later. If you need this or something else may I suggest that you start a new thread.
