A Sleepin' Bee
HAROLD ARLEN, TRUMAN CAPOTE
When a bee lies sleepin'
In the palm of your hand
You're bewitched and deep in love's
Long looked after land
Where you'll see a sun up sky
With the mornin' dew
And where the days go laughin' by
As love comes callin' on you
Sleep on bee, don't 'waken
Can't believe what just passed
He's mine for the taken
I am happy at last
Maybe I dreams but he seems
Sweet golden as a crown
A sleepin' bee done told me
I will walk with my feet off the ground and
When my one true love
I has found
Sleep on bee, don't 'waken
Can not believe what just passed
He's mine for the taken
I am happy at last
Maybe I dreams but he seems
Golden as a crown
A sleepin' bee told me
I will walk with my feet off the ground
When my one true love
I has found
