Well you wouldn't believe the things that I've seen
In a dream on Christmas Eve night
A small country child that didn't have much
Could dream up a big Christmas sight

We couldn't afford nothing but love
So I imagined the rest in my mind
Have you ever been poor and dreamed that you're
In Candyland at Christmas time

I saw peppermint trees with lollipop leaves
And jellybeans covered the ground
Big chocolate drops stood for the mountain tops
And gingerbread men danced around

I went walking about the marshmallow house
And the streets all had candy bar signs
Have you ever been poor and dreamed that you're
In Candyland at Christmas time

Have you ever been poor and dreamed that you're
In Candyland at Christmas time
