Lyrics

What have I got that the others ain’t
That always seems to please
Ain’t my perfume nor my fancy paint
But when I charm the men all swarm
Just like they was bees

Chorus
There’s honey in the honeycomb
There’s sugar in the cane
There’s oysters in a real oyster stew
And bubbles in sweet champagne
There’s jelly in the jelly roll
And sap in ev’ry tree
Oh there’s honey in the honeycomb
And honey there is love in me
