Honeycomb, Honeycomb
And a piece of bone
They 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'm made of 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 he waited all around
Till the end of spring
Again, every note that the birdies sing
And they put them all into one sweet tone
For my Honeycomb, oh, Honeycomb
Won't you be my baby?
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
Got a hank of hair and a piece of bone
They 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'm made of bird
I'm gonna look all around for a green, green tree
I'm gonna look all around for a little old word
That sounds about sweet like a turtle dove
And I guess I'm gonna call it love
And he waited all around till the end of spring
Again, every note that the birdies sing
And they put them all into one sweet tone
For my Honeycomb, oh, Honeycomb
Won't you be my baby?
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
Got a hank of hair and a piece of bone
They 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
