Oh Honey
BADBADNOTGOOD Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I get lost, feel I've been crossed
She will be my salvation
When I feel low, I've nowhere to go
She'll be my inspiration
Yeah, when my poor heart is breakin' apart
She ain't the kind to show off her mind
But talkin' of love she's clever, yeah
Oh, honey (Oh, honey)
Oh, honey (Oh, honey)
She rarely spends time with her friends
Tells me she's blue without me
When things go wrong her faith is strong
I know she'll never doubt me
Yeah, when she arrives and stands by my side
Makes me so proud to know her
High-steppin' dames with high-soundin' names
There ain't nothin' they could show her, yeah
Oh, honey (My honey)
Oh, honey (Honey, honey)
Now I just wanna thank you, baby
For givin' me a brand new start
I was goin' down, you saved me
When you let me in your lovin' heart, yeah
Oh, honey (Talkin' 'bout you, honey)
Oh, honey (Honey)
Oh, honey (Beautiful honey)
Oh, honey (You make me feel so proud, so proud, baby)
Oh, honey (I'm proud of my baby, yeah)
Oh, honey
The song "Oh Honey" by BADBADNOTGOOD is a romantic ballad that expresses the love and appreciation of a man towards his significant other. Throughout the song, the man emphasizes the importance of his partner in his life, stating that she is his salvation and inspiration when he is lost and low. She is the one who helps him put his broken heart back together and never doubts him, thus making him proud to be with her. The lyrics reveal the deep affection and gratitude that the man has for his lover, acknowledging her as his honey, and thanking her for giving him a brand new start when he was going down.
The chorus of the song repeatedly uses the phrase "Oh Honey," which is a term of endearment that the man uses to address his partner. The verse also highlights the woman's loyalty, faithfulness, and intelligence, as she rarely spends time with her friends and has strong faith despite adversities. The use of imagery in the song such as the "high-steppin' dames with high-soundin' names" suggests that the man has been with many women before, but none of them can compare to the special bond he shares with his partner.
