Remember
Ben Harper · Other Songs - Ben Harper
He used to sing for dinner, baby
Oh he used to sing for his supper
He used to sing so sweetly
Since my baby left me, he ain't sang for two long days
Oh, remember the blue-birds and the honey bees,
They used to sing for you and me
Oh, They used to sing about you and me
They used to sing so sweetly
But since my baby left me they ain't sang in two long days
Oh won't you please come home
Come on home to me
Make everyday happy as can be
And if you'll leave come on home to me
I'll kiss you for my dinner, baby
I'll kiss you for my supper, yeah!
But if you don't come back you know I'll have to
Starve to death
'Cus I ain't had noon of your loving all day now
Oh Remember
Would yo you remember
Oh, remember the blue-birds and the honey bees,
Singing sweetly for you and me
Oh the mocking bird, my baby bun
Oh don't you come home to me
Will you remember
