When a bee lies sleepin'

In the palm of your hand

You're bewitched and deep in love's

Long looked after love

Where you'll see a sun up sky

With the morning dew

And where the days go laughin' by

As love comes a-calling on you

Sleep on bee don't waken

Can't believe what just passed

He's mine for the takin'

I am happy at last...

Maybe I dreams, but he seems

Sweet golden as a crown

A sleepin' bee done told me

I will walk with my feet off the ground

When my one true love

I has found

Sleep on bee don't waken

Can not believe what just passed

He's mine for the takin'

I am happy at last...

Maybe I dreams but he seems

Golden as a crown

A sleepin' bee just told me

I will walk with my feet off the ground

When my one true love

I has found...
