Tupelo Honey

You can take all the tea in China

Put it in a big brown bag for me

Sail right around all the seven oceans

Drop it straight into the deep blue sea

She's as sweet as Tupelo honey

She's an angel of the first degree

She's as sweet as Tupelo honey

Just like honey, baby, from the bee

Now you can't stop us on the road to freedom

You can't keep us 'cause our eyes can see

Men with insight, men in granite

Knights in armor bent on chivalry

She's as sweet as Tupelo honey

She's an angel of the first degree

She's as sweet as Tupelo honey

Just like honey, baby, from the bee

I heard a tale of old Manhattan

I've never been there, but I want, want to go

Standing waiting on my number

And my number, it's gonna show

She's as sweet as Tupelo honey

She's an angel of the first degree

She's as sweet as Tupelo honey

Just like honey, baby, from the bee

(She's an angel)

She's as sweet as Tupelo, Tupelo honey (She's an angel)

She's an angel of the first degree (She's an angel)

She's as sweet, she's as sweet as Tupelo honey (She's an angel)

Just like honey, baby, from the bee (She's an angel)

She's an angel, she's an angel, she's an angel

She's an angel
