[Keith Sweat - Candy Store lyrics]
Can I take you back, I take you back
Can I take you back, I take you back girl
To the candy store, oh yeah
Can I take you back, I take you back
Can I take you back, I take you back girl
To the candy store, candy store
I took a trip to where we used to live
… a girl… that name and asking
… as the door, had a sign that said she
Don’t live here no more
Went to the neighbors asked because
You’re the only one for me
Love’s the only thing in life that will free
Now all I have left is just a memory
I remember when you were young
Back in the days of bubblegum
And the only thing that’s better than life
Was the candy store, down on the corner
All the kids in the neighborhood
Would get money from the parents
If they were good and we were good
We would all gather around the candy store
Down on the corner
That’s when I first saw you girl, yeah, yeah
Yeah
Looking so sweet, I said, how do you do
At the candy store down on the corner
You were my girlfriend, I was your boyfriend
I met you, at the candy store
I remember when you were young
Back in the days of bubblegum
And the only thing that’s better than life
Was the candy store, down on the corner
All the kids in the neighborhood
Would get money from the parents
If they were good and we were good
We would all gather around the candy store
Down on the corner
… in the back… moved top…the games
Holler at the Shawty, … bottoms with tops
… to the back… have a girlfriend
Carved her name on a tree
Now all I have left is just a memory
Miss Mary Mac, Mac, Mac, all dressed in black
With silver buttons, buttons, buttons
All down her back
She asked her mother, mother
Mother for 15 cents
To see the elephants, elephants, elephants
Jump over the fence, fence, fence
I remember when you were young
Back in the days of bubblegum
And the only thing that’s better than life
Was the candy store, down on the corner
All the kids in the neighborhood
Would get money from the parents
If they were good and we were good
We would all gather around the candy store
Down on the corner
Can I take you back, I take you back girl
To the candy store, oh yeah
Can I take you back, I take you back
Can I take you back, I take you back girl
To the candy store, candy store
I took a trip to where we used to live
… a girl… that name and asking
… as the door, had a sign that said she
Don’t live here no more
Went to the neighbors asked because
You’re the only one for me
Love’s the only thing in life that will free
Now all I have left is just a memory
I remember when you were young
Back in the days of bubblegum
And the only thing that’s better than life
Was the candy store, down on the corner
All the kids in the neighborhood
Would get money from the parents
If they were good and we were good
We would all gather around the candy store
Down on the corner
That’s when I first saw you girl, yeah, yeah
