Did You Hear John Hurt?

It was a frost night
It was beginning the snow
And down the city's stream
Well, the wind began to blow

We all came to the cellar
We all emptied the bar
To hear a little fellow
Play a shiny guitar

Well, did you hear John Hurt play the Creole Belle
He's found his Fandango that he loved so well
Well, did you love John Hurt? Did you shake his hand
Did you hear him singing his Candy Man?
Did you hear him singing his Candy Man?

Yeah

Well, on a straight back chair, with his Svelte hat on
He tickled our fancy with his avalon
And all the people passing down McDonald's street
They cock their heads and it's got the feed

Did you hear John Hurt play the Creole Belle?
He's found his Fandango that he loved so well
Well, did you love John Hurt? Did you shake his hand?
Did you hear him singing his Candy Man?
Did you hear him singing his Candy Man?
Did you hear him singing his Candy Man?
