Well, Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own He took a hank of hair and a piece of bone And made a walkin', talkin' Honeycomb Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own What a darn good life when ya got a wife like Honeycomb Well, it's a darn good life but it's kinda funny How the Lord made the bee, the bee made the honey The honeybee lookin' for a home And they called it a honeycomb And he roamed the world and he gathered all Of the honey into one sweet ball The honeycomb from a million trips Made my baby's lips Oh, Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own He took a hank of hair and a piece of bone And made a walkin', talkin' Honeycomb Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own What a darn good life when ya got a wife like Honeycomb And the Lord said "now that I made a bee I'm gonna look all around for a green, green tree" He made a little tree and I guess ya heard What then, well he made a little bird And he waited all around till the end of spring A-gettin' every note that the birdies sing He put 'em all into one sweet song for my Honeycomb Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own He took a hank of hair and a piece of bone And made a walkin', talkin' Honeycomb Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own What a darn good life when ya got a wife like Honeycomb And the Lord said "now that I made a bird I'm gonna look all around for a little old word Sounds about sweet like a turtle dove And I guess I'm gonna call it love" And he roamed the world lookin' everywhere Gettin' love from here, love from there Put it all in a little old part of my baby's heart Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own He took a hank of hair and a piece of bone And made a walkin', talkin' Honeycomb Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own What a darn good life when ya got a wife like Honeycomb What a darn good life when ya got a wife like Honeycomb (Honeycomb be my own)
