| 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
|
| Oh, 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 |
