Honey Suckle Rose - Mildred Bailey

Every honeybee

Sighs with jealousy

When they see you out with me

I won’t blame them, goodness knows

Honeysuckle rose

When we’re passing by

Flowers droop and sigh

And I know the reason why

You’re much sweeter, goodness knows

Honeysuckle rose

I don’t buy sugar

You just have to touch my cup

You’re my sugar

It’s sweet when you stir it up

When I’m taking sips

From your tasty lips

Seems the honey fairly drips

You’re confection, goodness knows

Honeysuckle rose

Every honeybee

Sighs with jealousy

When they see you out with me

I can’t blame them, goodness knows

You’re my honeysuckle rose

When we’re passing by

Flowers droop and sigh

And I know the reason why

You’re sweeter, goodness knows

You’re my honeysuckle rose

Don’t buy sugar

You just have to touch my cup

You’re my sugar

It’s sweet when you stir it up

When I’m taking sips

From your tasty lips

Seems the honey fairly drips

You’re confection, goodness knows

You’re my

Honeysuckle rose
