Cottoncandy Girl from Heaven's Town by Anthony Sutton

Well you've heard about the Candyman
He'll stick a stick of candy in your hand
But I don't want no peppermint swirls
I'm gonna see the Cottoncandy Girl

She's down in the shooting gallery
Shooting down the tin cans
Ting ting ting
And if you get all five
She'll give you the cottoncandy prize

Blue and pink and good size round
The sweetest thing in this town
Light and free with an easy sway
Cottoncandy girl don't go away

Look up over yonder
See the moons a silver dollar
Gonna bring it on down
Break it into quarters

So if you can get away
Even just for a spell
I can the the 50 cents
For the carousel

I don't need to see
No trapeze flying around
No elephant that get on one foot
Raise up it's trunk
And blow 'Sweet Georgia Brown'
Cause I got a sweet tooth
For the sweet things you do
I got a sweet tooth for that cotton candy
