Lyrics for Honeysuckle Rose

Every honey bee fills with jealousy When they see you out with me Goodness knows You're my honeysuckle rose When you're passin' by, flowers droop and sigh And I know the reason why Goodness knows You're my honeysuckle rose Don't buy sugar You just have to touch my cup You're my sugar It's sweeter when you stir it up When I'm taking sips from your tasty lips Seems the honey fairly drips Goodness knows You're my honeysuckle rose Goodness knows You're my honeysuckle rose Don't buy sugar You just have to touch my cup You're my sugar It's sweeter when you stir it up When I'm taking sips from your tasty lips Seems the honey fairly drips Goodness knows You're my honeysuckle rose WALLER, THOMAS 'FATS'/RAZAF, AND
