Honeysuckle Rose

Jane Monheit

Compositor: Andy Razaf / Fats Waller

[Verse]
Have no use for sweets of any kind
Since the day you came around,
From the start i instantly made up my mind
Sweeter sweetness can`t be found.
You`re so sweet, can`t be beat,
Nothing sweeter ever stood on feet.

[chorus]:

Every honeybee fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me.
I don`t blame them goodness knows,
Honeysuckle rose.
When you`re passing by,
Flowers droop and sigh,
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.
You`re my sugar,
It`s sweet when you stir it up.

When i`m taking sips from your tasty lips,
Seems the honey fairly drips,
You`re confection, goodness knows,
Honeysuckle rose.
