Honeysuckle Breeze

Story Behind The Song

Lyrics

Got some money in my pocket the sun upon my back
There?s a cool wind blowing through the trees.
Going to see my baby
You know she?s the one I love
I?m as happy as a man can be

She?s got a little cottage
About a mile outside of town
With honeysuckle far as you can see
And I know that love only just a few short steps away
When I smell that sweet old honeysuckle breeze

She?s a flower of the Southland
A Miracle in white
And everything a man could ever need
Pretty as a picture
And soft as summer rain
And sweeter than a honeysuckle breeze

She?s gonna greet me at the doorway
With a smile that makes my heart just want to fly
And I?m hoping that some sweet day
She?ll be my honeysuckle baby, I?ll be her honeysuckle guy


When I turn the corner and I see my baby?s house
My heart starts to buzzin? like the bees
She?s so fine
I want to make her mine
She?s sweeter than that honeysuckle breeze

GUITAR SOLO

She?s gonna greet me at the doorway
With a smile that makes my heart just want to fly
And I?m hoping that some sweet day
I?ll be her honeysuckle groom, she?ll be my honeysuckle bride

When I turn the corner and I see my baby?s house
And my heart starts to buzzin? like the bees
She?s so fine
I want to make her mine
And she?s sweeter than that honeysuckle breeze

She?s so fine
I want to make her mine
She?s sweeter - sweeter
She?s sweeter than that honeysuckle breeze

Love the brush feel. Reminded me of the feel that John Sebastian had with the Loving Spoonful.
A real good time feel that is not heard often enough for me. Great work and I'll make a point of listening to some of your other songs.
Nice work.

I like the intro, kind of reminds of Lyle Lovett. Nice voice, good story. A very nice tune! Nice ending.
