|
Well it's a darn good life
|
And it's kinda funny
|
How the Lord made the bee
|
And the bee made the honey
|
And the honeybee lookin' for a home
|
And they called it honeycomb
|
And they roamed the world and they gathered all
|
Of the honeycomb into one sweet ball
|
And the honeycomb from a million trips
|
Made my baby's lips
|
|
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
|
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
|
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
|
And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
|
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
|
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
|
What a darn good life
|
When you got a wife like Honeycomb
|
|
(Honeycomb)
|
|
And the Lord said now that I made a bee
|
I'm gonna look all around for a green, green tree
|
And He made a little tree and I guess you heard
|
What then, well, he made a little bird
|
And they waited all around till the end of Spring
|
Gettin' every note that the birdie'd sing
|
And they put 'em all into one sweet tome
|
For my Honeycomb
|
|
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
|
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
|
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
|
And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
|
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
|
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
|
What a darn good life
|
When you got a wife like Honeycomb
|
|
(Honeycomb)
|
|
And the Lord says now that I made a bird
|
I'm gonna look all round for a little ol' word
|
That sounds about sweet like "turtledove"
|
And I guess I'm gonna call it "love"
|
And He roamed the world lookin' everywhere
|
Gettin' love from here, love from there
|
And He put it all in a little ol' part
|
Of my baby's heart
|
|
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
|
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
|
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
|
And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
|
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
|
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
|
What a darn good life
|
When you got a wife like Honeycomb
