English Country Garden lyrics

Honeycomb
Jimmie Rodgers

(Honeycomb)
(Honeycomb)

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
