Sting Of The Honeybee Lyrics

Diane Zeigler Sting Of The Honeybee

Do you hear that howling at the window
Do you hear that rattling at the door
I think a storm is coming
But you will not see me running
'Cause I've lived through this before

Here in this house the weather changes
You can never be certain what's in store
One minute his eyes are flashing
Clap thunder in a fit of passion
And the threat of the lion's roar is keeping the score

Mama take care of me
I've got the sting of the honeybee
Say a prayer for me
He left me crying at the sugartree

When that wicked wind leaves my window
I can try to forget how it has blown
I remember when he met me sunstruck
A big wedding and a kiss for good luck
But hard life in the danger zone is all I've ever known

Mama take care of me
I've got the sting of the honeybee
Say a prayer for me
He left me crying at the sugartree
