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 my sweety, 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 confection, 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 my sweety, 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, stir it up
When I'm taking sips from your dainty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
Oh, honeysuckle rose
