Honey Man Lyrics

Well I wish I was your sweet little honey man
Just a hanging 'round the rising sun
You know you can't hold out against a boy who's
A whiskey fast and a honey slow
I wish I was, I wish I was your
I wish I was your honey man
I wish I was your sweet little honey man
And when the bee's inside the hive
You gonna holler in the thick of love
I'll buy you all the jag I can
This honey man's gonna' sting you again

A when I come a home to you honey
Oh, your little eyes never flicker
I wished I was that cool
And then your love just a wouldn't matter at all

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.
