Honeysuckle Rose

Have no use for other sweets of any kind
Since the day you came around
One look, and I instantly made up my mind
Sweeter sweetness can't be found
You're so sweet
Can't be beat
Nothin' sweeter ever stood on feet

Ev'ry honey bee fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
Well, I don't blame them, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

When you're passin' by
Flowers droop and sigh
And you 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
Now you're my sugar
So sweet when you stir it up

When I'm takin' sips from your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
Honey, oh, suckle rose

Ev'ry honey bee fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I don't blame them, goodness knows (I don't blame 'em either, baby)
I say you're my honey, oh, suckle rose (Well, hush your mouth)
When you're passing by
Those flowers, they just droop and sigh, yeah (Droop and sigh)
And we both know the reason why (Why, why?)
You're much too sweet, goodness knows
Oh, and you're my honeysuckle rose

Don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
Now you're my sugar
So sweet when you stir it up

When I'm takin' sips from your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows (Oh, honey)
You're confection, goodness knows (Oh, yeah)
You're confection, goodness knows (Oh, I love it)
You're my honeysuckle rose
Oh, mercy!
