Honeysuckle Rose

Andy Razaf, Fats Waller

[Verse 1]
Every honeybee fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I don't blame them, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

When you're passin' by, flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

[Bridge]
Don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar
It's sweet when you stir it up

[Verse 2]
When I'm taking sips from your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

[Instrumental Break]
[Scatting]

[Bridge]
Don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
'Cause you're my sugar
It's sweet when you stir it up

[Verse 3]
And honey drips from your lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

[Outro]
So don't buy sugar
'Cause you're my sugar
And you're confection, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
