Honeysuckle Rose

Lyrics

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!
