Honey Do — текст песни (Jimmy Buffett)

Honey do

By: jimmy buffett, michael utley

1983

For hoagy carmichael

You never try to keep the wild ones home

But mister dont just sit there and wait

Go out on the town makin all of the rounds

It dont matter if youre your own date



(aah, aah, ah, ah ah ah)

(aah, aah, ah, ah ah ah)

Vacantly occupied, sat on the beach til my body got fried

Dreamin of your pretty eyes up in south carolina

I cant pronounce my rs or gs when Im speakin southernese

Honey do, honey come and do me again



Ive seen your fat cat style

Three hundred pounds of jive ass smile

Young girls gigglin all the while

Thats not my cup of chowder



I go for candlelight

Cold champagne nearly every night

Honey do, a little toast for me and you



Honey (honey) why couldnt you have taken the non-stop train

Im hungry (hungry) and I really want to see you again



I know its gettin late

Waiter keeps starin at your empty plate

Maitred keeps tellin me

"uh sir, shes just not coming"



Now what the hell does garcon know

Weve been through all this befo

Honey do, honey come and do me again



-- spoken: "alright blues torpedoes"



(sax solo)



Honey (honey) why couldnt you have taken the non-stop train

Im hungry (hungry) and I really want to see you again



Vacantly occupied, sat on the beach til my body got fried

Dreamin of your pretty eyes up in south carolina

I cant pronounce my rs or gs when Im speakin southernese

Honey do, honey come and do me again (one more time)

Yeah honey do, honey come and do me again

Oh oh oh oh

Honey do, honey come and do me again
