Scott:Mississippi John Hurt was and is my first guitar hero, back in 1964. I play a few of his songs, and I got to meet and talk with him back then.
Stefan Grossman publishes a lot of John Hurt songs, in a book, complete with music and TAB. I can't remember if the words are also in his book or not. I'll look it up, when I get home tonight.

I know "Candyman". Let me know what words you don't understand. I'll try to help.
