Little Honey

Lucinda Williams Little Honey Lyrics
1.Real Love

I found the love I've been looking for
It's a real love, it's a real love
Standing up behind an electric guitar
It's a real love, it's a real love
And all the time I was thinking no way
And all the time I never thought I'd say
I found the love I've been looking for
It's a real love, it's a real love
It's a real love, it's a real love

Said come on baby we really got something
It's a soul connection, you're changin' my world
Give me your affection, be my girl
It's a real love, it's a real love
It's a real love, it's a real love

The thing about you so far, you squeeze my peaches
Then you send me postcards of girls on beaches
You're drinking in a bar in Amsterdam
I'm thinking baby far out, be my man
It's a real love, it's a real love
It's a real love, it's a real love

I found the love I've been looking for
It's a real love, it's a real love
Standing up behind an electric guitar
It's a real love, it's a real love
And all the time I was thinking no way
And all the time I never thought I'd say
I found the love I've been looking for
It's a real love, it's a real love
It's a real love, it's a real love
It's a real love, it's a real love
It's a real love, it's a real love

3.Tears Of Joy

Up-rooted and restless, I paid the cost
I've been a mess, misguided and lost
But I've been so blessed since our paths have crossed
That's why I'm crying tears of joy

In my own little world since I was sixteen
Little miss playgirl making the scene
Then you took this girl and you made her your queen
That's why I'm crying tears of joy

I used to play games with my boyfriends
Fashion and fame, hip little trends
Now I have a real man, don't have to pretend
And that's why I'm crying tears of joy

I'll be your woman, be your everything
You be my baby, you be my king
You give my life meaning, that's why I wear your ring
And why I'm crying tears of joy
And that's why I'm crying tears of joy
That's why I'm crying tears of joy


4.Little Rock Star

It's clear you have a death wish
And from what I hear, your latest dish
Lives for you and scares you half to death

You bend over backwards to make a statement
Hang from the rafters and lick the pavement
Split your lip and barely catch your breath

Your lovely eyes, they close like petals
Your sweet surprise could win you medals
You strut your stuff and fan your peacock feathers

Even if you fake it to get attention
Whatever it'll take to get them to listen
Piss on your designer boots and designer leathers

Hey Little Rock Star, what don't you see
This is not all that it's cracked up to be
And I can't say I blame you
For throwing the towel in or buying more fame
by cashing your chips in
But with all your talent, and so much to gain
To toss it away like that would be such a shame

Juvenile delinquent, misunderstood
Peter Pan and Robin Hood
Will you ever do the things you're afraid to do

Will you ever know happiness, Little Rock Star
Or is your death wish stronger than you are
Will you go up in flames like the torches
that are carried for you

Hey Little Rock Star, what don't you see
This is not all that it's cracked up to be
And I can't say I blame you
For throwing the towel in or buying more fame
by cashing your chips in
But with all your talent, and so much to gain
To toss it away like that would be such a shame


5.Honey Bee

Oh, my little honey bee
I'm so glad you stung me
You've become my weakness
Now I've got your sweetness
All up in my hair
Honey bee, I swear
We make quite a pair
Oh, my little honey bee

Oh, my little honey bee
I'm so glad you stung me
Buzz around your hive now
You're in overdrive now
Give me such a thrill
Honey bee be still
Oh, my little honey bee

Oh, my little honey bee
I'm so glad you stung me
Now I've got your honey
All over my tummy
Honey bee, it's heaven
Twenty-four seven
Oh.my little honey bee

Oh, my little honey bee
I'm so glad you stung me
You've become my weakness
Now I've got your sweetness
All up in my hair
Honey bee, I swear
We make quite a pair
Oh, my little honey bee


6.Well Well Well

Well, well, well, here it is again
The way I feel is down but then
You know if you toss a stone in a river
It sinks to the bottom, it won't rise up either

Hey, hey, hey, this here's a test
And it may not be the last
I tell you what, I have to wonder
When I get lost and I end up yonder

Huh, huh, huh, ain't this a shame
Don't this beat all you've ever seen
Just when I thought I was getting up there
Things went and got a whole lot tougher

My, my, my, how do you figure
The reason why we always differ
But hey now, you know what I mean
If you hang around trash you can't come out clean

Well, well, well, here it is again
The way I feel is down but then
You know if you toss a stone in a river
It sinks to the bottom, it won't rise up either

Well, well, well
Hey, hey, hey
Huh, huh, huh
My, my, my


7.If Wishes Were Horses

Why'd I turn on you and say those things?
I didn't mean em
Wish you were bringin' your love back to me
Instead of leavin'

But if
Wishes were horses, I'd have a ranch
Come on and give me another chance

Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Another chance

We used to drive through the canyons
Down to where
the land meets the sea
I never knew what I had back there
Till you went away from me

But if
Wishes were horses, I'd have a ranch
Come on and give me another chance

Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Another chance

I was scared of standing on the edge
Darkness lookin' in
I hurt you bad and now I wish
We could begin again

But if
Wishes were horses, I'd have a ranch
Come on and give me another chance

Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Another chance

Wish I could turn a sad and blue, blue day
Into something good
Wish I could somehow make it go away
I wish you understood.

But if
Wishes were horses, I'd have a ranch
Come on and give me another chance

Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Another chance

Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Another chance

Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Come on and give me
Another chance


8.Jailhouse Tears

I'm crying, jailhouse tears
And I've been trying all these years
Been trying to ride things out
But now I'm shifting gears
And we're both crying jailhouse tears

They say I broke the law
Now everything is broken down
Babe I know what I saw
I know you went downtown.

They locked me up
And you locked me out
You tried to steal my truck, but
That's not what this is about

I went to the corner
To get a cold six pack
You're a drunk you're a stoner
You never came back.

I used to be a user
But now I'm all out of stuff
You're a 3 time loser
You're all fucked up

I'm crying, jailhouse tears
And I've been trying all these years
Been trying to ride things out
But now I'm shifting gears
And we're both crying jailhouse tears

I'll prove it to you somehow
I'm done with every bit
Look at me, I'm clean now

You're so full of shit
I swear I will tell all
Look in my dresser drawers

Now I'm behind the 8-ball
You're behind bars.

I'm crying, jailhouse tears
And I've been trying all these years
Been trying to ride things out
But now I'm shifting gears
And we're both crying jailhouse tears
I'm crying, jailhouse tears
And I've been trying all these years
Been trying to ride things out
But now I'm shifting gears
And we're both crying jailhouse tears


9.Knowing

I didn't know
what love meant before
I didnt know
what you had waiting for me in store
I didnt know
that I'd be finding out so much more
about the knowing
and the knowing is all there is
about yes
and yes, this is it
I didnt know
I didn't know
what precious time would make
I didnt know
how fragile a kiss could seem
I didnt know
that finally all of dawn is trained
about the knowing
and the knowing is all there is
about yes,
and yes, this is it
I didn't know
I didn't know
I'd never look at life the same
I didn't know
until i walked with you in the rain
I didn't know
until i found out you felt the same
about the knowing
and the knowing is all there is
about yes
and yes, this is it
I didn't know

I....didn't know
until together we lay
I didn't know
until you touched my soul that day
I didn't know
that you would teach me in your own way
about the knowing
and the knowing is all there is
about yes
and yes, this is it
i didnt know
i didnt know
i...didnt know

11.Rarity

You're reaealy you;re say word

12.Plan To Marry

when leaders can't be trusted
when hero's let us down
and innocence lies rusted
frozen beneath the ground
and the destitute isolated
we've all been forgotten
and the the fruit trees
we planted are withered and rotten
the abuse and magnificent suffer from infection
and the promises were given
but never with intention
war becomes common place, secrets overheard
and violence, big business and love is just a word
why do we marry?
why do we fall in love? keep on believing in love
because love, love is a my soar,
love is a weapon, love is a lesson
and we, we are the conquerors
we are the soldiers
we are the lovers


13.It's A Long Way To The Top

Riding down the highway
Going to a show
Stop in all the byways
Playing rock 'n' roll
Getting robbed
Getting stoned
Getting beat up
Broken boned
Getting had
Getting took
I tell you people
It's harder than it looks
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

If you think it's easy doing one night stands
Try playing in a rock roll band
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

Hotel motel
Make you wanna cry
Lady do the hard sell
Know the reason why
Getting old
Getting grey
Getting ripped off
Under-paid
Getting sold
Second hand
That's how it goes
Playing in a band
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
If you wanna be a star of stage and screen
Look out it's rough and mean

It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

It's a long way
It's a long way
It's a long way
Such a long way

It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way
It's a long way
