[Verse 1]
F#
Well it's a darn good life And it's kinda funny
B
How the Lord made the bee And the bee made the honey
Db
And the honeybee lookin' for a home
F#
And they called it honeycomb
F#
And they roamed the world and they gathered all
B
Of the honeycomb into one sweet ball
Db
And the honeycomb from a million trips
F#
Made my baby's lips
[Chorus]
B
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
F#
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
Db
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
F#
And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
B
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
F#
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
Db
What a darn good life
F#
When you got a wife like Honeycomb
[Verse 2]
G
Honeycomb
And the Lord said now that I made a bee
C
I'm gonna look all around for a green, green tree
D
And He made a little tree and I guess you heard
G
Oh, then well he made a little bird
G
And they waited all around till the end of Spring
C
Gettin' every note that the birdie'd sing
D
And they put 'em all into one sweet tome
G
For my Honeycomb
[Chorus]
C
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
G
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
D
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
G
And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
C
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
G
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
D
What a darn good life When you got a wife like
G
Honeycomb
[Verse 3]
Ab
Honeycomb
And the Lord says now that I made a bird
Db
I'm gonna look all round for a little ol' word
Eb
That sounds about sweet like "turtledove"
Ab
And I guess I'm gonna call it "love"
Ab
And He roamed the world lookin' everywhere
Db
Gettin' love from here, love from there
Eb
And He put it all in a little ol' part
Ab
Of my baby's heart
[Chorus]
Db
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
Ab
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
Eb
Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
Ab
And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb
Db
Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby
Ab
Well, Honeycomb, be my own
Eb
What a darn good life
Ab
When you got a wife like Honeycomb
