Charley Patton with Bertha Lee - Charley Patton Vol. 3 (1929 - 1934)

Yellow Bee

Yellow bee, yellow bee, please come back to me
Yellow bee, yellow bee, please come back to me
He made the best old honey any yellow bee I ever seen

Well he buzzed me this morning, been looking for him all day long
Well he buzzed me this morning, been looking for him all day long
Had me to the place once, hate to see my yellow bee leave home

Well I can't stand here worried, worried, worried
Come here yellow bee, oh you know your stuff (you know you know it)
Ah buzz me yellow bee till I gets enough

Yellow bee makes honey, black bee make the comb
Yellow bee makes honey, black bee make the comb
If you want to feel blue try build him a honeycomb

Well I can't stand here worried, worried, worried
Come here yellow bee oh you know your stuff (I know you know it mama)
Ah buzz me Papa Charlie till I gets enough

Ahhh stinger long as my right arm
Ahhh stinger long as my right arm
Had me to the place once, hate to see my yellow bee leave home
