From the recording Honeysuckle Breeze
Lyrics
Honeysuckle Breeze
Got some money in my pocket the sun upon my back
There’s a cool wind blowing through the trees.
Going to see my baby
You know she’s the one I love
I’m as happy as a man can be
She’s got a little cottage
About a mile outside of town
With honeysuckle far as you can see
And I know that love only just a few short steps away
When I smell that sweet old honeysuckle breeze
She’s a flower of the Southland
A Miracle in white
And everything a man could ever need
Pretty as a picture
And soft as summer rain
And sweeter than a honeysuckle breeze
She’s gonna greet me at the doorway
With a smile that makes my heart just want to fly
And I’m hoping that some sweet day
She’ll be my honeysuckle baby, I’ll be her honeysuckle guy
When I turn the corner and I see my baby’s house
My heart starts to buzzin’ like the bees
She’s so fine
I want to make her mine
She’s sweeter than that honeysuckle breeze
GUITAR SOLO
She’s gonna greet me at the doorway
With a smile that makes my heart just want to fly
And I’m hoping that some sweet day
I’ll be her honeysuckle groom, she’ll be my honeysuckle bride
When I turn the corner and I see my baby’s house
And my heart starts to buzzin’ like the bees
She’s so fine
I want to make her mine
And she’s sweeter than that honeysuckle breeze
She’s so fine
I want to make her mine
She’s sweeter - sweeter
She’s sweeter than that honeysuckle breeze
