Honey-Drippin' Times

Neil Diamond · Reflections [2004]

Warm night time smells in the air

Sit on an old rockin' chair

Thinkin' back where I've been

Goin' back, once again

I can find honey-drippin' times

Honey-drippin' times



Kid's playin' games in the yard

Kids never know when times are hard

But they're kids and I'm not

I just see all I've got on my mind

Honey-drippin' times

Honey-drippin' times

(whistles)

Thinkin' back where I've been

Goin' back once again

I can find honey-drippin times

Honey drippin' times

(whistles)
