King Bee
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm a king bee buzzing around your hive
Now I'm a king bee darling buzzing around your hive
Yeah, I can make some honey babe if you let me fly up inside
Cause I'm young and able to buzz all night long
I'm young and able mama, Lord to buzz all night long
And you know together we can make some honey
Like the world ain't never known
Cause I'm asking king bee, won't you be my Queen
Now I'm a king bee rider, won't you be my Queen
Because you know we can make some sweet little honey
Like the world ain't never seen
Drive your car up in my driveway
Cut your bright lights way down low
Drive your car up in my driveway, mama
Cut your bright lights way down low
I'm gonna wind up your transmission
Till your motor won't run no more
