Honeysuckle Rose

Every honeybee fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I don't blame 'em, goodness knows
My honeysuckle rose

Flowers droop and sigh when you're passin' by
And I know the reason why--
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle rose

I don't buy sugar--
You just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar--
It's so sweet when you stir it up

On the avenue, people look at you
And I know just why they do
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle rose

Instrumental

Every honeybee fills with jealousy
When they see you're out with me
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle

Oh....flowers droop and sigh when you're passin' by
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle rose

I don't buy sugar--
You just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar--
It's so sweet when you stir it up

On the avenue, people look at you
And I know just why they do
You're much sweeter goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle rose
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
My honeysuckle rose!
