Honeycomb, won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb, be my own
Just a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
Made a walkin', talkin' honeycomb
Honeycomb, won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb, be my own
What a darn good life when I got a wife
Like honeycomb

It's a darn good life and it's kind of funny
How the bee was made and the bee made the honey
The honey bee lookin' for a home
Made my honeycomb
Then they combed the world and they gathered all
Of the honeycomb up in one sweet ball
The honeycomb from a million trips
Made my baby's lips

Honeycomb, won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb, be my own
Just a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
Made a walkin', talkin' honeycomb
Well, honeycomb, won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb, be my own
What a darn good life when I got a wife
Like honeycomb

Now, have you heard tell how they made a bee?
Then they tried a hand at a green, green tree
So, the tree was made and I guess you heard
Next, they made a bird
Now, they waited 'round 'til the end o' spring
Savin' every note that the bird did sing
Then they rolled it up into one sweet tone
For my honeycomb

Honeycomb (Honeycomb), won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb (Honeycomb), be my own
Just a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
Made a walkin', talkin' honeycomb
Well, honeycomb (Honeycomb), won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb (Honeycomb), be my own
What a darn good life when I have a wife
Like honeycomb

In a little while when they made that bird
They looked around for a little word
It sounded sweet as a turtle dove
So, they called it "love"
Then they went around lookin' everywhere
Takin' love from here and from there
And they stored it up in a little cart
For my honey's heart

Honeycomb, won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb, be my own
Just a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
Made a walkin', talkin' honeycomb
Oh, honeycomb, won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb, be my own
What a darn good life when I got a wife
Like honeycomb
Honeycomb, won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb, be my own
Just a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone
Made a walkin', talkin' (Ooh) honeycomb
Well, honeycomb, won't you be my baby?
Honeycomb, be my own
What a darn good life when you got a wife
Like honeycomb
