Honey Don't
Release date: 04 December 1964
Well, how come you say you will when you won't?
Say you do baby, when you don't?
Let me know, honey, how you feel
Tell the truth now
Is love real?
So uh huh
Well honey don't
Well honey don't
Honey don't
Honey don't
Honey don't
Honey don't
I say you will when you won't
Uh huh
Honey don't
Well I love you baby and you oughta know
I like the way that you wear your clothes
Everything about you is the dog-gone sweet
You got that sand all over your feet
But uh huh
Well honey don't
Honey don't
Honey don't
Honey don't
Honey don't
I say you will when you won't
Uh huh
Honey don't
(Ah rock on George one time for me)
I feel fine
Mmmm mm
I'm sayin'
Well sometimes I love you on a Saturday night
Sunday morning you don't look right
You been out, painting the town
Uh huh baby been steppin' around
But uh huh
Well honey don't
I'm sayin' honey don't
Honey don't
Honey don't
Honey don't
I say you will when you won't
Uh huh honey don't
(Ah rock on George with Ringo one time)
(Woo)
Well honey don't
Well honey don't
A little little honey don't
I say you will when you won't
Uh huh, honey don't
