Martha Reeves & The Vandellas - Honey Chile lyrics
You're shiftless and you're lazy
Just like the hound dog, Daisy
I had when grandma raised me
Honey chile, poor Granny
Got too old to scorn me
Dear old auntie warned me
You sure was no good for me
Honey chile
But your kiss is
Sweeter than the cake
That grandma used to make
Oh, them sweet little
Things about you
Sure enough takes the cake
You ain't gonna amount
To nothing cause you ain't
Gonna work for nothing
Without you, I'm good
For nothing, honey chile
Honey chile
Sure bout to drive me wild
And I love you so
Can't let go
Now, honey chile
Ooh, sugar chile
I'd walk me a country mile
Just to be with you
And to stay with you
Now, honey chile
I try to act like a lady
But you've been courting Sadie
Your reputations shady
Honey chile
Hey, you even took out Sally
Who lives across the alley
Oh, I've been keeping tally
Honey chileMartha Reeves & The Vandellas - Honey Chile - http://motolyrics.com/martha-reeves-and-the-vandellas/honey-chile-lyrics.html
You're like the
Grapes upon the vine
That went in Granny's wine
Cause like that
Homemade wine so sweet
You sure enough drive me
Out of my mind now
You ain't nothing but a playboy
Using me for a play toy
You're ruining my pride and joy
Now, honey chile
Honey chile
Sure bout to drive you wild
And I love you so, can't let go
Of my honey chile
Ooh, sugar chile
I'd walk me a country mile
Just to be with you in solitude
Now, honey chile
Ooh, listen here now
One day I'm gonna get stronger
And I won't need you no longer
This feeling will be a goner
Honey chile
Hey, now I can't take disgracing
That ain't the way Granny raised me
You gonna have your gravy
Honey chile
Sugar chile
I'd walk me a country mile
Just to be with you in solitude
Now, honey chile
Hey, honey chile
Sure bout to drive you wild
And I love you so, can't let go
Now, honey chile
