My little queen bee
Got a brand new king
My little queen bee
Got a brand new king
Well, he must make her happy
Ought-a hear my queen bee sing

Durin' the mo'ning
Sometime, late at night
Durin' early in the mo'ning
Sometime, late at night
Well, it make me believe
That he's treatin' my queen bee right

If I could only
Get inside that hive
If I could only
Get inside that hive
Well, I'll be double trouble
And I'll make somebody cry

(harmonica & instrumental)

Well, my queen bee
Probably, she's long gone
Well, my queen bee
Probably, she's long gone
Well, I tried ev'rything
But I just can't get her home

(harmonica & instrumental to end)
