White Honey Lyrics

White honey
Get it from the candy man
White honey
Anytime I think I can

You wake up early in the morning
Playing on your clarinet
Whole town down when the man comes around
And no one pays their rent it's all spent on

White honey
Get it from the candy man
White honey
Anytime I think I can

She come and laid on a sample
A little sweet white honey bee
Tastes so good that the whole town stood
And stared and looked at me they all see the

White honey
Get it from the candy man
White honey
Anytime I think I can

But now I ain't wanna criticise
But let me tell you what I found
Since they took away the record machine
White honey don't come around

White honey
Get it from the candy man
White honey
Anytime I think I can

Said, honey what you doing, what you doing, what you doing
What you doing downtown, tell me baby
Honey what you doing, what you doing, what you doing
You're trying to make me look like a clown
I said hit white honey when the chips are down
I'm gonna taste white honey when ain't no one around

White honey 
Get it from the candy man
White honey
Anytime I think I can

You wake up early in the morning
Playing on your clarinet
Whole town down when the man comes around
And no one pays their rent it's all spent on

White honey 
Get it from the candy man
White honey
Anytime I think I can

She come and laid on a sample
A little sweet white honey bee
Tastes so good that the whole town stood
And stared and looked at me they all see the

White honey 
Get it from the candy man
White honey
Anytime I think I can

But now I ain't wanna criticise
But let me tell you what I found
Since they took away the record machine
White honey don't come around

White honey 
Get it from the candy man
White honey
Anytime I think I can

Said, honey what you doing, what you doing, what you doing
What you doing downtown, tell me baby
Honey what you doing, what you doing, what you doing
You're trying to make me look like a clown
I said hit white honey when the chips are down
I'm gonna taste white honey when ain't no one around

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
