Honeysuckle Rose
Honey, honey
Oh, honey, listen to my plea:
Every honeybee
Fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I don't blame them, goodness knows
Oh, honeysuckle rose
When you're passin' by
Flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
Oh, honeysuckle rose
I don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
I don't need sugar
It's sweet enough when you stir it up
When I'm taking sips
From your dainty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're perfection, goodness knows
Oh, honeysuckle rose
Every honeybee
Fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I don't blame them, goodness knows
Oh, honeysuckle rose
When you're passin' by
Flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
Oh, honeysuckle rose
I don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
I don't need sugar
Oh, its sweet
Stir it up
When I'm taking sips
From your dainty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're perfection, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
