I got her number off the bathroom wall
Said her name was Candy Rose
It took some courage just to make that call
Roll the dice, you never know
I got a checkered cab in seconds flat
In minutes, I was climbing her gates
She was looking down from her balcony
Hangin' out all over the place
She said "Hey, Sugar, have you been here before?
Next time you come around, use the back door"
Kid in a candy store
Everything and a little more
Kid in a candy store
Flat sixty-nine on the second floor, yeah
Went inside, my brain was fried
From working swing shifts all week long
I needed company, a little fantasy
The situation was clearly on
She had raven hair and ruby lips
And the body of a movie star
Till she held out her hand, said, "Do you understand?
It's two grand and your new guitar"
I said, "Hey, Sugar I've been here before
But next time I come, I'll use the back door"
Kid in a candy store
Everything and a little more
Kid in a candy store
Suite sixty-nine on the seventh floor
Yeah
An empty wallet makes an empty heart
As a penny dropped to the floor
All my wages are in your dresser drawer
But I always come
Back for more
Kid in a candy store
Everything and just a little more
Kid in a candy store
Flat sixty-nine on the second floor
Kid in a candy store
Everything and just a little bit more
Kid in a candy store
Suite sixty-nine on the seventh, seventh floor
Candy store, candy store, candy store
Want a little more
Candy store, candy store, candy store
On the seventh floor
Candy store, candy store, candy store
Yeah, I want a little more
Candy store, candy store, candy store
Open up your door, yeah
Candy Rose
