Well it's a darn good life
And it's kinda funny
How the Lord made the bee
And the bee made the honey
And the honeybee lookin' for a home
And they called it honeycomb...
[CHORUS]
And the Lord said now that I made a bee
I'm gonna look all around for a green, green tree
And He made a little tree and I guess you heard
What then, well, he made a little bird
And they waited all around till the end of Spring
Gettin' every note that the birdie'd sing
And they put 'em all into one sweet tome
For my Honeycomb
[CHORUS]
And the Lord says now that I made a bird
I'm gonna look all round for a little ol' word
That sounds about sweet like "turtledove"
And I guess I'm gonna call it "love"
And He roamed the world lookin' everywhere
Gettin' love from here, love from there
And He put it all in a little ol' part
Of my baby's heart
[CHORUS]
...like.....HONEYCOMB
Song by Jimmie Rodgers "Honeycomb"

Great photos. Haven't heard that song in some time. xo Jenny
ReplyDelete...thanks, an 'oldie but goodie' maybe?
DeleteThe crepe myrtle is gorgeous. The wasp nest, not so nice, I'm allergic to those critters. But bees I love.
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard this song in decades. It made me smile when it started playing.
...I'm allergic to bee stings that I know, but I'm not sure if I've ever been stung by a wasp. Thanks for joining this week.
DeleteThis would have been one of the songs my brothers and I would have listened to on the radio while we ate breakfast before going to school. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for happy memories.
The crepe myrtle is lovely and that bee nest is awesome!
...thanks Carletta!!!
DeleteThe photos are great - given my allergies to bees, I can't say I loved the honeycomb photo though...LOL. This was a great old song and brought back a lot of memories. Haven't heard it in AGES! Great pairing of song and photos today! Thanks for hosting this meme - it is my absolute favorite one. If I had to give up blogging totally, I think I would still participate in this one!
ReplyDelete...thanks Linda....glad you enjoy TTS so much.
DeleteGreat post,Anni I loved the photos. Just gorgeous. Have a wonderful day!

...thanks M&M....it's a 'feel good song' Even tho the 'honeycomb' I have here isn't so nice to look at. LOL
DeleteLOL at your pepper grinder story!!
ReplyDeleteAs far as the size of the accordion....they have smaller ones for children. As you grew you graduated up. Mine was about 18" long.
C
...LOL....glad you clarified that, but I could comment more about size matters...but won't.
DeleteThose wasps just make me shudder. Hope you weren't too close. I've always loved that song.
ReplyDeleteMama Bear
...nope, use of a zoom lens helps.
DeleteAdorable! I even love the bees and wasps looking fine. I've got one word for you, Anni: Lordy! I sure enjoyed this! :-)
ReplyDelete...that's always good to read that you enjoy my postings DJan.
DeleteSome great honeycomb compositions.
ReplyDelete...thanks Lindy
DeleteLove your photos, even the wasp nest, which I was happily thinking was bees and a honeycomb until you mentioned it. O well. LOL
ReplyDeleteAlways liked "Honeycomb" for its happy, infectious beat, and Jimmie Rodgers for his cute smile. Life was so simple then. We didn't like men for their "buns" and we didn't even know about "abs"!

...closest I could get to a real 'honeycomb'. :o)
DeleteOkay at least we agree those are wasp nests...not bees nests! I thought you had lost your honey-lovin' mind for a sec! Great shots though.
ReplyDelete...that's a close as I could get for 'honeycomb'. LOL
DeleteThanks for the great pix and the sone! Thats high school stuff for me, and I still knew every word of it. My first visit here and I came from your other Bird blog. Beautiful, beautiful!
