I want you to come on, baby
Now and take a walk with me
I want you to come on, baby
Now and take a walk with me
Well, then I show you this won’t nothin' bother you
I’ll be yo’r little honey bee
I will make you honey in the mo’nin'
Now an I will make you honey at night
Now I will make you honey in the mo’nin'
Now an I will make you honey at night
Now then, I will make you honey three times a day
Baby, if you would just treat me right, now
Well, we will take a walk out in the park
Now an sit down un' some little shade tree
We will take a walk out in the park
Now an sit down un' some little shade tree
Well now you said that I was your baby
And that I could be yo little honey bee
I want to hold you in my arms
Baby, an I want you to hold me tight now
I want to hold you in my arms
Baby an I want you to hug me tight
Now because you said that I was yo honey bee
An I could make your honey just right.
