Every honeybee
Sighs with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I won’t blame them, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
When we’re passing by
Flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You’re much sweeter, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
I don’t buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
You’re my sugar
It’s 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

What a time it was for jazz and wonderful female vocalists. Mildred Bailey,Billie Holliday,Ella Fitzgerald,Bessie Smith and many more. Thank you for the legacy they have given.
Great to hear this, as we feel the same. Definitely will go back and add the years in weeks ahead. Still quite busy now just getting the stuff posted. This one is credited to Mildred Bailey and Her Alley Cats. Enjoy!
