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

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
