Melissa Ruth: Songs
Honey from the Hive
I hear that train a-comin
Rollin down the tracks
That lonesome whistle blows
Sends a chill right down my back
When she roll into the station
I’m gonna climb aboard
And I ain’t comin back no more….
Lone horseman rode to town
He round up all them pretty girls
He blow the men down
Everyone afraid to tell him
Where that pony ought to go
I say head over them hills
Listen where the wind blow
My baby’s got these lips
Sweet like honey from the hive
And she know just what to say
To make me feel alright
But my baby’s got a wandering eye
And a heart that’s hard to tame
The bee will make you honey
She’ll turn around and sting you just the same
I hear that train a-comin
Rollin down the tracks
That lonesome whistle blows
Sends a chill right down my back
When she roll into the station
I’m gonna climb aboard
And I ain’t comin back no more….
