When a bee lies sleepin'

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 in sky

With the mornin' dew

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 taken

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

Can not believe what just passed

He's mine for the taken

I am so 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
