Lyrics
Every honeybee
Fills with Jealousy
When They see you out with me
I don't blame them, Goodness knows
Honeysuckle Rose
When you're passin' by
Flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter, Goodness knows
Honeysuckle Rose
Don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar
It sweet when you turn it up
When I'm takin' sips
From your tasty lips
The it seems the honey barely drips
You're confection, Goodness knows
Honeysuckle Rose
