Lyrics
Say, I have no use for other sweets of any kind
Baby since the day you came around
But from the start I instantly made up my mind
No sweeter sweetness can be found

You so sweet, oh pops!
Can't be beat, you mean it!
Nothing sweeter ever stood on feet, yes

Every honeybee fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I don't blame them, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

When you're passin' by, flowers drop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

Don't buy sugar; you just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar; it's so sweet when you stir it up

When I'm taking sips from your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

Don't buy sugar; you just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar; it's so sweet when you stir it up

When I'm taking sips from your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

I said you're confection, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
