Elton John - Candy By The Pound Lyrics

Well I'm keeping off the streets
Since you came to town
Since you claimed my heart
From the lost and found

I have said goodbye to my foolin' around
Now you and me babe we got candy by the pound
Mmm you and me babe we got candy by the pound

Wooh wooh

Well I never knew it could feel so good
Be the king of the hill in my neighborhood
Rain on my roof what a sweet sound
Oh with you underneath it's like candy by the pound
Mm with you underneath it's like candy by the pound

Wooh wooh

You can tell everybody that this girl of mine
Is sweeter than the grapes hanging from the vine
Love like wine honey drinking till I drown
Keep it coming baby like candy by the pound

Oh no what's come over me
If I am dreamin' then let me sleep
Oh wow I'm Heaven bound
Love is getting sweeter than candy by the pound

Wooh wooh

Now I'm ducking in the alley of common sense
(Ooh)
Hiding from the claws of my old girl friend
(Ooh)
She's screaming murder beating my door down

While I'm right behind it I'm eating candy by the pound
I'm right behind it eating I'm candy by the pound

You can tell everybody that this girl of mine
Is sweeter than the grapes hanging from the vine
Love like wine honey drinking till I drown
Keep it coming baby like candy by the pound

Oh no what's come over me
If I am dreamin' then let me sleep
Oh good God I'm Heaven bound
Love is getting sweeter than candy by the pound

Love is getting sweeter than candy by the pound
Your love's sweeter, is so much sweeter, it's sweeter
Than candy by the pound
Your love's sweeter, is so much sweeter, it's sweeter
Than candy by the pound

Wooh wooh

Love is so much sweeter baby
Love is so much sweeter baby
(Love is so much sweeter baby)
Sweeter baby
(Love is so much sweeter baby)
Sweeter than the candy by the pound
Sweeter than the candy by the pound
Sweeter than the candy by the pound
Sweeter than the candy by the pound
