Honey Brown

(专辑： Boogie Down! - 1974)

Say it, say it, baby
No, don't go away

My Honey Brown, lovely barefooted clown
As sweet and wild as honeysuckle vine
Now children would follow every place you would go
Thrill and delight to your one-woman show

How foolish and vain to think that I could change
A girl whose heart was born for the stage

Honey Brown, we were worlds apart
I knew it from the start
That's why I stepped aside and let you go free
Cause Honey Brown, my love was so deep

I used to laugh at your movie magazines
You vowed one day, you'd be on the screen
I'd fight in the streets when folks tried to say
You'd love any man who promised you fame

And then he came in his big shiny car
Took your love from me and broke my heart

Honey Brown, through your tears, you're gonna find
Life can be cruel and so unkind
So Honey Brown, don't let his masquerade
Make a street corner, a street corner your stage

Oh, don't let him do it
Don't let him do it
Oh, Honey

How foolish and vain to think that I could change
A girl whose heart was born for the stage

Honey Brown, girl can't you see
I'll always love you and want you here with me
Honey Brown, I'll be around
You're gonna need me when the tears come down

Oh, Honey, Oh, Honey
