I never thought this could happen to me Uh huh huh, yeah Uh huh huh, yeah. I got stung by my sweet honey bee Oh, what a feeling come over me It started in my eyes Crept up to my head Flew to my heart Till I was stung dead I'm done, uh huh I got stung! Uh huh huh, yeah Uh huh huh, yeah. She had all that I wanted and more And I've seen honey bees before She started buzzin' in my ear Buzzin' in my brain Got stung all over But I feel no pain I'm done, uh huh I got stung. Now, don't think I'm complainin' I'm might pleased we met 'Cause you gimme one little peck On the back of my neck And I break out in a cold, cold sweat Well, if I live to a hundred and two I won't let nobody sting me but you I'll be buzzin' 'round your hive Every day at five And I'm never gonna leave Once I arrive 'Cause I'm done I got stung Uh huh huh, yeah Uh huh huh, yeah.
