Every honey bee fills with jealousy

When they see you out with me

I don’t blame them goodness knows

My honeysuckle rose



Flowers droop and sigh when your'e passing 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 my honeysuckle rose



And I don’t buy sugar

You’re my sugar

It’s so sweet when you stir it up



You’re much sweeter goodness knows

You’re my honeysuckle rose
