No good would it do you to stand there and frown at me

The girl's got my heart and my love's comin' down on me
Am D7 G
My life's kinda mellow since I got a taste of wild honey
Verse 2:
You know she's got the sweetness of a honey bee
Wild honey, she got it hard and stung me good, yessirree
With all the other stud bees buzzin' all around her hive
She singled me out, single-handed took me alive
Can you dig it gonna take my life eatin' up her wild honey

Bridge:
Am
Oh, mama she's sweeter (gettin' sweeter)
Sweeter (gettin' sweeter)
D7
Sweeter, sweeter, ah...
Verse 3:
Wild honey, oh let me tell you how she really got to my soul
It ain't funny the way she makes me want to sing a little
rock 'n roll
There's nothing quite as sweet as a taste of wild honey
I break my back workin' just to save me some money
So I can spend my life with her... sock it to me, wild honey
