lyrics

Mama never let me wear my rubber skirt
Mama never let me whore myself on you
I coulda been something I coulda been something
I coulda been something sweet like your honey bee

I've see you with the moon and you said,
Let's fall in love.
Well, I have heard that talk and the talk
Ain't good enough
Does anybody love me? Does anybody love me?
Does anybody love me, sweet like your honey bee?

It’s been a long long time…

And I guess I could spare a little drop of my love for you
Yes, I guess I could make a little personal time for you

Tell it to the black-haired boy, baby, make him cry.
Tell it with a tear, tell it with a cheer, tell him why.
He coulda been something. He coulda been something.
He coulda been something sweet like your honey bee.

It’s been a long long time…

And I guess I could spare a little drop of my love for you
Yes, I guess I could make a little personal time for you

Mama never let me wear my rubber skirt
