Howlin' at midnight, winter creepin' in. Feel like I've gone and lost my best friend. My best friend, lost my best friend. This car's headed down the wrong track again.
Just a shakin' in my knees, just a cold chill. Don't know what it is, just call it a thrill. Just a lump in my throat, just hot blood. Don't know what it is, some call it love.
[Chorus]. Oh, my little honey bee. I'm so glad you stung me. . You've become my weakness. Now I've got your sweetness. All up in my hair. Honey bee, I swear.
Gonna make it right, gonna make it right up in heaven. (Repeat four times). . Gonna see my mother, gonna see my mother up in heaven. (Repeat four times).
His mama ran off when he was just a kid. So he never really knew her at all. Just a picture of a girl in a sad blue dress. Hanging beside a cross on the wall.
