Well itand's a darn good life
and itand's kinda funny
how the lord made the bee
and the bee made the honey
and the honeybee lookinand' 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 babyand's lips
Oh, honeycomb, wonand't you be my baby
well, honeycomb, be my own
got a hank oand' hair and a piece oand' bone
and made a walkinand' talkinand' honeycomb
well, honeycomb, wonand'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
iand'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
gettinand' every note that the birdieand'd sing
and they put and'em all into one sweet tome
for my honeycomb
Oh, honeycomb, wonand't you be my baby
well, honeycomb, be my own
got a hank oand' hair and a piece oand' bone
and made a walkinand' talkinand' honeycomb
well, honeycomb, wonand'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
iand'm gonna look all round for a little oland' word
that sounds about sweet like andquot;turtledoveandquot;
and i guess iand'm gonna call it andquot;loveandquot;
and he roamed the world lookinand' everywhere
gettinand' love from here, love from there
and he put it all in a little oland' part
of my babyand's heart
Oh, honeycomb, wonand't you be my baby
well, honeycomb, be my own
got a hank oand' hair and a piece oand' bone
and made a walkinand' talkinand' honeycomb
well, honeycomb, wonand't you be my baby
well, honeycomb, be my own
what a darn good life
when you got a wife like honeycomb
