Honeycomb (Marilyn Wilson‐Rutherford vocal) Lyrics

It′s a darn good life and it's kind of funny
How the bee was made, and the bee made honey
The honeybee is lookin′ for a home
And it made a honeycomb

Then they combed the world
And they gathered all of the honeycomb in one sweet bowl
And the honeycomb from a million trips
Made my baby's lips

Honeycomb, won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb, be my own
Just a hunk of hair and a piece of bone
Made a walkin′, talkin′ honeycomb

Now have you heard tell how they made a bee?
Then tried a hand at a green, green tree
So the tree was made, and I guess you've heard
And next they made little bird

Now they waited round to the end of spring
Savin′ every note the bird did sing
And then they rolled it up in one sweet tone
For my honeycomb

Honeycomb, won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb, be my own
Just a hunk of hair and a piece of bone
Made a walkin′, talkin' honeycomb

In a little while
When they made that bird
They looked around for a little word
It sounded sweet as a turtle dove
And so they called it love

Then they went around, lookin′ everywhere
Takin' love from here and love from there
And they stored it up in a little park
For my honey's heart, oh

Honeycomb, won′t you be my baby?
Honeycomb, be my own
Just a hunk of hair and a piece of bone
Made a walkin′, talkin'. Honeycomb
