Honeysuckle Rose
Irene, Irene, that was the beginning of our magic moments
Those were golden days, glorious days
Sweet George Brown, tore up the town
Then there was the chill-witted call from Dixie to Broadway
That was with Florence Mills (Florence Mills)
And do you remember the Alhambra theater? (Yeah)
Do you remember the song, Irene?
Oh, yes, I remember (huh)
Every honeybee (hmm-hmm)
Fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I don't blame them, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
When you're passing by
Flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
Honeys su- su- suckle rose
Don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
Hey, you're my sugar
So 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 fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
Don't blame 'em, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
You pass by, flowers droop and sigh
And you're the reason why (tell me why)
You're perfection, honeysuckle rose
Oh, baby, don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar
And you're sweet 'cause you stir me up
When I'm takin' sips from your tasty lips (baby, baby)
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
You're my honey (honey)
You're my honey (honey)
You're my honeysuckle rose
Those were golden days, glorious days
Sweet George Brown, tore up the town
Then there was the chill-witted call from Dixie to Broadway
That was with Florence Mills (Florence Mills)
And do you remember the Alhambra theater? (Yeah)
Do you remember the song, Irene?
Oh, yes, I remember (huh)
Every honeybee (hmm-hmm)
Fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I don't blame them, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
When you're passing by
Flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
Honeys su- su- suckle rose
Don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
Hey, you're my sugar
So 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 fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
Don't blame 'em, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
You pass by, flowers droop and sigh
And you're the reason why (tell me why)
You're perfection, honeysuckle rose
Oh, baby, don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar
And you're sweet 'cause you stir me up
When I'm takin' sips from your tasty lips (baby, baby)
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
You're my honey (honey)
You're my honey (honey)
You're my honeysuckle rose
