    In the fifties, when I was a little sprig of a boy, my father would sing The Big Rock Candy Mountain to me and my brothers. I love the song, and can hear my father singing along with you. Thank you precious girl.

      My father grew up in Peru, Indiana. He and my Grandmother often used to walk down to the Wabash River, to the hobo camp to bring them soup and potatoes. As an old man he used to paint the camp, and men cooking over camp fires, and the train cars, and his little brindle bulldog.

    You did itt again Phoebe. I'm smiling and enjoying one of my old time favorites. Back in the early 50's, my sister got a record player and a few records, and one of the songs was Big rock candy Mountain sang by Burl Ives. Thanks for reviving old memories from many decades ago.

    In Australia (& probably New Zealand…) you would be termed, with the greatest of love & affection, a “dag”. Please stay “daggy” - your videos are a wonderful breath of the freshest of air. Another time perhaps, ask me about the derivation of the term - again something typically Oz or Kiwi. Much love to you!

    "Where they killed the jerk who invented work, on the Big Rock Candy Mountain!"
    Phoebe, you're superb. You truly bring joy and sunshine to the world.
    One evening, as the sun went down
    And the jungle fire was burning
    Down the track came a hobo hiking
    And he said, "Boys, I'm not turning
    I'm headed for a land that's far away
    Beside's the crystal fountains
    So come with me, we'll go and see
    The Big Rock Candy Mountains"
    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
    There's a land that's fair and bright
    Where the handouts grow on bushes
    And you sleep out every night
    Where the boxcars all are empty
    And the sun shines every day
    On the birds and the bees and the cigarette trees
    The lemonade springs, where the bluebird sings
    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
    All the cops have wooden legs
    And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth
    And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs
    The farmers' trees are full of fruit
    And the barns are full of hay
    Oh, I'm bound to go where there ain't no snow
    Where the rain don't fall, the wind don't blow
    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
    You never change your socks
    And the little streams of alcohol
    Come a-trickling down the rocks
    The brakemen have to tip their hats
    And the railway bulls are blind
    There's a lake of stew, and of whiskey too
    You can paddle all around 'em in a big canoe
    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
    The jails are made of tin
    And you can walk right out again
    As soon as you are in
    There ain't no short-handled shovels
    No axes, saws nor picks
    I'm a-goin' to stay where you sleep all day
    Where they hung the jerk that invented work
    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
    I'll see you all this comin' fall
    In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
    ~Harry McClintock
