Lyrics

Listen girl, huh
Don't you hold on to me for the things that I've got, you hear?
Don't, don't you hold on for what I've got (listen)

Mother nature must have made you
You got a smile like a rising sun
You're the one (honey), you're the one (honey)
And whenever we're together (it really seems we were having fun)
Oh, it seems like we're having fun
You're the one (honey), you're the one (honey)

(Don't, don't you hold on for what I've got)
Listen, there's more to me than what you see, see?
It's just the way that you love
That left me so proud of you
Honey, honey, honey, honey, child, oh
You're so, so, sweet to me (you're so, so, sweet to me, girl)
But you got a sting like a bee (but you got a sting like a bee, child, oh)
Honey, honey, honey (oh, sweet loving thing)

Listen
You know that I adore you (I'd give my heart if I could afford you)
You the one (honey), you the one (honey), yeah
Now my thing is number one (now my thing is number one)
You look to me just to have your fun (you look for me just to have your fun)
You the one (honey), you the one (honey), honey, yea-yeah

Don't, don't you hold on for what I've got (accept me like I am)
It's just the way that you love (la-la-la-la-la)
That makes me so proud of you (la-la-la-la-la)
Honey, honey, honey, honey, oh (la-la-la-la-la)
Listen
'Cause when you do what you do, girl (la-la-la-la-la)
It keeps me stuck on you (la-la-la-la-la)
Honey child (la-la-la-la-la)

You got a sting like a bee, girl (la-la-la-la-la)
Oh, you got a hold on me (la-la-la-la-la)
Honey, honey, honey, sweet loving thing (la-la-la-la-la)
'Cause when you do what you do, girl (la-la-la-la-la)
Oh, I fell next to you, child (la-la-la-la-la)
Love me, please love me, sweet loving thing (la-la-la-la-la)

When no one would protect you
I was around, so I did respect you
You are the one (honey), you are the one (honey), honey

I love you, because you are honey
Would you love me if I had no money? (Would you love me if I had no money?)
You are the one (honey), you are the one (honey)

Don't, don't you hold on for what I got
It's just the way that you love, girl
That makes me so proud, honey, honey, honey
You're so, so, sweet to me (so sweet, so sweet to me)
But you got a sting like a bee (but you got a sting like a bee, child, oh)
Honey, honey, honey (oh, sweet loving thing, girl)
Listen, uh

It's the way that you're loving (it's just the way you love me)
That makes me so proud, oh-oh (that makes me so proud, oh)
Honey, honey, honey (oh, you honey, child, oh, listen here, uh)
You're so, so, sweet to me (girl, you're so sweet to me)
But you got a sting like a bee (but you got a sting like a bee, girl)
Honey, honey, honey (oh, I wanna tell you a loving thing), aw
Ooh
