Honeycomb Lyrics - Marty Robbins

Well, Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own 

He took a hank of hair and a piece of bone 

And made a walkin', talkin' Honeycomb 

Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own 

What a darn good life when ya got a wife like Honeycomb 

Well, it's a darn good life but it's kinda funny 

How the Lord made the bee, the bee made the honey 

The honeybee lookin' for a home 

And they called it a honeycomb 

And he roamed the world and he gathered all 

Of the honey into one sweet ball 

The honeycomb from a million trips 

Made my baby's lips 

Oh, Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own 

He took a hank of hair and a piece of bone 

And made a walkin', talkin' Honeycomb 

Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own 

What a darn good life when ya got a wife like Honeycomb 

And the Lord said "now that I made a bee 

I'm gonna look all around for a green, green tree" 

He made a little tree and I guess ya heard 

What then, well he made a little bird 

And he waited all around till the end of spring 

A-gettin' every note that the birdies sing 

He put 'em all into one sweet song for my Honeycomb 

Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own 

He took a hank of hair and a piece of bone 

And made a walkin', talkin' Honeycomb 

Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own 

What a darn good life when ya got a wife like Honeycomb 

And the Lord said "now that I made a bird 

I'm gonna look all around for a little old word 

Sounds about sweet like a turtle dove 

And I guess I'm gonna call it love" 

And he roamed the world lookin' everywhere 

Gettin' love from here, love from there 

Put it all in a little old part of my baby's heart 

Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own 

He took a hank of hair and a piece of bone 

And made a walkin', talkin' Honeycomb 

Honeycomb, won't ya be my baby, Honeycomb be my own 

What a darn good life when ya got a wife like Honeycomb 

What a darn good life when ya got a wife like Honeycomb 

(Honeycomb be my own)
