- Heaven for anarchists and hobos alike
Lyrics:
One evening as the sun went down and the jungle fires were burning
Down a track came a hobo hiking and he said boys Im not turning
Im headed for a land thats far away beside the crystal fountain
So come with me and well go see the Big Rock Candy Mountain
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain theres a land thats fair and bright
Where the handouts grow on bushes and you sleep out everynight
Where the boxcars are all empty and the sun shines everyday
and the birds and the bees and the cigarette trees the lemonade springs where the bluebirds sing all sorts of different fucking things in the Big Rock Candy Mountain
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain all the cops have wooden legs
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 Im bound to go where there aint no snow where the rain dont fall and the wind dont blow where the grass plants grow and the nihilists go in th Big Rock Candy Mountain.
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain you never change your socks
and the little streams of alkyhol come trickling down the rocks
The breakmen have to tip their hats and the railroad bulls are blind
Theres a lake of stew and whisky too, you can paddle all around em in a big canoe
You can do whatever you want to do in the Big Rock Candy Mountain
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain all the jails are made of tin
and you can walk right out again as soon as you are in
There no short handled shovels no axes saws or picks
Im gonna stay where you sleep all day where they hung the jerk that invented work and Ill see you all this coming fall in the Big Rock Candy Mountain room for all - now fuck off!
P.s. This song is probably copyrighted, so... hush.
17 people will never find the big rock candy mountains and aren't allowed there :)

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

This brings me back some good memories..
seeing the restarts in a squat in london back in 2005, along with short bus window lickers maybe...
fuckin mental
I'm a punk rock hobo and this is my jam I liked the beat farmers version the best till I heard this one
"Oi nick! Have ya heard about the big rock candy mountains?"
"Naw! What's all that about
then??"
"Well it's this place that nobody walks! And the pigs dont give ye any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. It's a place where cunts like me n u can truly take it easy n relax! Ye know what a mean?"
"Well what the bleedin hell are we waiting for then?! Let's GOOOOO!!"
the cover is better than the original!! GO restarts!!!
German Review about the "Uprising" Vinyl Album from The Restarts:
vinyl-keks.eu/the-restarts-uprising-vinyl-lp/
Honestly, I think this covid quarantine shit is sort of the big rock candy mountain we always wished for
Im in love with this cover. But saying "fuck you all" instead of "fuck off" at the end would rhyme with "ill see you all this coming fall". Besides that though its a perfect song to yell along with in the car. ❤
Gotta love these guys. Great song and epic cover.
Still looking for the big rock, it’s damn hard to find.
going to see them tommoro in frankfurt! fukin be there!
Fucking love this song
this song is basically about a punk utopia
it's an old song from the American depression about a hobo utopia, but fucking great both versions
Nice job, Kieran! Restarts rawk! Many cheers from Pat(Squampton)!

I love this song so much - ever then I`m listening to it, I`m sad and happy at the same time
