A sleepin' bee

When a bee lies sleeping
In the palm of your hand
You're bewitched
And deep in love's long looked after land

Where you'll see a sun up sky
With a mornin' new
And where the days go laughin' by
As love comes callin' on you

Sleep on bee, don't waken
Can't believe what just passed
He's mine for the takin'
I am so happy at last

Maybe I dreams but he seems
Sweet golden as a crown

A sleepin' bee done told me
I will walk with my feet off the ground
When my one true love
I has found

Sleep on bee, don't waken
Cannot believe what just passed
He's mine for the takin'
I'm happy at last

Maybe I dreams but he seems
Golden as a crown

A sleepin' bee told me
I will walk with my feet off the ground
When my one true love
I has found
