SWEET HONEY HOLE
Blind Boy Fuller
Blind Boy Fuller recorded 1937
Sweet honey, sweet honey hole,
I said sweet honey, sweet honey hole,
Said it even take my honey, satisfy my soul.
Said I want my honey every mornin', late at night,
If I don't get my honey, don't believe I'm treated just right!
Sweet honey hole, sweet honey hole,
Said it even take my honey, satisfy my soul.
Said I want my honey every mornin', late at night,
If I don't get my honey, don't believe I'm treated just right!
Sweet honey hole, sweet honey hole,
Said it even take my honey, satisfy my soul.
Now you talk about your pork chop, and your jelly roll,
Ain't anything sweet as my sweet honey hole!
Sweet honey hole, sweet honey hole,
Said it even take my honey, satisfy my soul, yeah!
Now you talk about your honey, you haven't tasted mine,
You taste your honey, you're gonna lose your mind!
Sweet honey hole, sweet honey hole,
Said it even take my honey, satisfy my roll.
Now you can talk about your honey, better leave mine alone,
You taste my honey, your momma can't keep you home!
Sweet honey hole, sweet honey hole,
Said it even take my honey, satisfy my soul.
Says I can't see, to save my life,
What a single man want with a married woman wife1
She got a sweet honey, sweet honey hole,
Said it even take my honey, satisfy my soul.
