Honey
Moby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If my honey comes back, sometime
I'm gonna rap that jack, sometimes
Get a hump in my back, sometimes
I'm going over here, sometimes

Way down yonder, sometimes
Gonna get my pal, sometimes

Overall Meaning

Moby's song "Honey" is a laid-back and dreamy tune that invokes a sense of longing and nostalgia. The opening lines "If my honey comes back, sometime/I'm gonna rap that jack, sometimes" can be interpreted in different ways, but it seems to refer to the singer's hopeful anticipation of his lover's return. "Rapping that jack" could refer to gambling, as it was a popular slang term for playing dice in the 1930s when the song's sample was recorded. There's a sense of excitement and risk-taking in the way he sings it, as if he's eager to take on any challenge to win back his lover's heart.


The next lines, "Get a hump in my back, sometimes/I'm going over here, sometimes," suggest a change in mood and direction. The "hump in my back" could be a metaphor for the burdens of love and the sacrifices one has to make to keep a relationship going. The singer could be saying that sometimes he feels weighed down by these burdens, but he's still willing to go where his lover takes him. The rest of the lyrics continue in this vein, with the singer expressing different emotions and desires, sometimes happy and sometimes sad, but always with a sense of yearning and hopefulness.
