 (Honeycomb)
 (Honeycomb)

 Well it's a darn good life
 And it's kinda funny
 How the Lord made the bee
 And the bee made the honey
 And the honeybee lookin' for a home
 And they called it honeycomb
 And they roamed the world and they gathered all
 Of the honeycomb into one sweet ball
 And the honeycomb from a million trips
 Made my baby's lips

 Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
 Well, Honeycomb, be my own
 Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
 And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
 Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
 Well, Honeycomb, be my own
 What a darn good life
 When you got a wife like Honeycomb

 (Honeycomb)

 And the Lord said now that I made a bee
 I'm gonna look all around for a green, green tree
 And He made a little tree and I guess you heard
 Oh, then well he made a little bird
 And they waited all around till the end of Spring
 Gettin' every note that the birdie'd sing
 And they put 'em all into one sweet tome
 For my Honeycomb

 Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
 Well, Honeycomb, be my own
 Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
 And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
 Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
 Well, Honeycomb, be my own
 What a darn good life
 When you got a wife like Honeycomb

 (Honeycomb)

 And the Lord says now that I made a bird
 I'm gonna look all round for a little ol' word
 That sounds about sweet like "turtledove"
 And I guess I'm gonna call it "love"
 And He roamed the world lookin' everywhere
 Gettin' love from here, love from there
 And He put it all in a little ol' part
 Of my baby's heart

 Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
 Well, Honeycomb, be my own
 Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
 And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
 Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
 Well, Honeycomb, be my own
 What a darn good life
 When you got a wife like Honeycomb
