I know that sorghum is mighty sweet
But I know someone much sweeter
Yes, that's much sweeter
Sweeter than honey that comes from bees
Sweeter than songbirds in the trees
And I want do leave her

Oh, listen honey to what I say
I want to have a talk with you
Yes, a talk with you
You are so pretty and look so sweet
And that’s just why I want to meet
A pretty girl like you

When you went in to the berry patch
I wish that I was the berry
I was the berry
You put a berry right to your lips
It kissed the stain right on your lips
Wish I was that berry

When you went into the old corn field
The stalks of corn looked like palm trees
Beautiful palm trees
The old grеy mare in the barn of brown
Just blinked hеr eyes and turned around
And I'm not hard to please
I got a cabin full of nice things
They're yorn if you’ll name the day
Yes, just name the day
I've got good mules and I've got good health
A full silo that's more than wealth
So, just you just name the day
