Tupelo Honey

you can take all the tea in china put it in a big brown bag for me
sail right around 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 from the bee
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 armour bent on chivalry
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 armour intent on chivalry
you know she’s all right
you know she’s all right with me
she’s all right she’s all right she’s an angel
you can take all the tea in china put it in a big brown bag for me
sail it right around the seven oceans drop it smack dab in the middle of the
deep blue sea
she’s my baby you know she’s all right
there’s a rose pressed inside a bible that she reads on the balcony
she’s sweet in slumber and i’ve got her number for the beginning of the century
i’ll tell a tale of old manhattan adirondack bus to go
standing waiting on my number and my number’s going to show
i heard a tale of old manhattan i’ve never been there but i want to go
standing waiting on my number and my number’s going to show
