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 sky
With the mornin' new
And where the days go laughin' by
As love comes a-callin' on you

Sleep on, bee, don't waken
Can't believe what just passed
He's mine for the takin'
I'm so happy at last

Maybe I dream but he seems sweet
Golden as a crown

A sleepin' bee done told me
I'll walk with my feet off the ground
When my one true love I have found

~~~♫♫♫ ~~~

Maybe I dream but he seems sweet
Golden as a crown

A sleepin' bee done told me
I'll walk with my feet off the ground
When my one true love I have found
