It was a frosty night
It was beginning to snow
And down the city streets
The wind began to blow
We all came to the cellar
We all emptied the bar
To hear a little fella
Play a shiny guitar
Did you hear John Hurt
Play the Creole Belle
The Spanish Fandango
That he loved so well
And did you love John Hurt
Did you shake his hand
Did you hear him
Sing his Candy Man
On a straight back chair
With his felt hat on
He tickled our fancies
With his Avalon
And everyone pa**ing
Down on MacDougal Street
co*ked their heads and listened
To the tappin' feet
Did you hear John Hurt
Play the Creole Belle
The Spanish Fandango
That he loved so well
Did you love John Hurt
Did you shake his hand
Did you hear him
Sing his Candy Man
Did you hear John Hurt
Play the Creole Belle
The Spanish Fandango
That he loved so well
And did you love John Hurt
Did you shake his hand
Did you hear him
Sing his Candy Man
Did you hear him
Sing his Candy Man
