hey, hey, hey, hey
i know a girl who's tough but sweet, she's so fine she can't be beat
she's got everything that i desire, she sets the summer sun on fire
(chorus)
i want candy, i want candy, i want candy, i want candy
go to see ya when the sun goes down, there ain't no finer girl in town
you're my girl you're what the doctor ordered, i think you're so sweet ya make my mouth water
watch this, i want candy, i want candy, i want candy, i want candy, hey
hey, hey
i want candy, i want candy
candy on the beach there's nothin better, but i like candy when it's wrapped in leather, someday soon i'll make her mine, and then i'll have candy all the time
say, i say, i want candy, i want candy, i want candy, i want candy
hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
