Well, they took some honey from a tree,

Dressed it up and they called it me.

I woke up last night, half past four,

fifteen women knockin' at my door.

Went out last night, didn't stay late,

Me and my gal sittin' in the shade, 
                             E7 
talkin' 'bout the money that she has made.

And everybody's tryin' to be my baby,
