Lyrics

Oh, true fine mama, she's really on the ball

Yes, true fine mama, she's really on the ball

She hears my every plea, comes to my beckon call

Oh, come back baby, don't leave me here

Come back baby, don't leave me here

You know that I love you, don't disappear

Yes, true fine mama, don't go away

Yes, true fine mama, don't go away

You know that I love you, every night and day

Well, singin'

Honey, honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey

True fine mama, don't go away

Yes, true fine mama, don't go away

You know that I love you, every night and day

Well, I'm singin'

Honey, honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey, honey

Honey, honey, honey, honey
