Honey bee, keep on stingin' me 
Honey bee, keep on stingin' me 

When I first saw you standin' there 
Temptation filled your smile 
I had to hold on to my heart 
But you were so persistent 
You wore down my resistance, now 

Honey bee, you're such a part of me 
Honey bee, you stung the heart of me 
Honey bee, keep on stingin' me, mm

You started a fever burnin' deep inside of me 
Since you stung me with your sweet love 
My whole life is rearranged 
My heart looks like love has changed 

Honey bee, you're such a part of me 
Honey bee, you stung the heart of me 
Honey bee, keep on stingin' me 

Into my life like a breath of spring 
Came your love like the sunshine 
To stop the rain 
Dried all my tears 

Darlin' I've been blessed 
With your honey sweet love 
And I must confess 
Our love's dear, ooh, baby 

Honey bee, keep on stingin' me 
Honey bee, keep on stingin' me 

This taste of honey you're givin' me 
Has sweetened all my bitterness 
And finally pushed my fears aside 
In return I'll send in your direction 
All my sweet lovin' affection 

Honey bee, you're such a part of me 
Honey bee, you stung the heart of me 
Honey bee, keep on stingin' me 

Honey bee, you're such a part of me 
Honey bee, keep on stingin' me 
Honey bee, you stung the heart of me
