Honeysuckle Rose
Quintet Of The Hot Club Of France Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every honey bee fills with jealousy,
When they see you out with me.

Goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle rose

When you're passin' by flowers droop and sigh,
And I know the reason why.

Goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle rose

Don't buy sugar,
You just have to touch my cup.
You're my sugar.
It's sweeter when you stir it up.

When I'm taking sips from your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips.

Goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle rose

Goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle rose

Don't buy sugar,
You just have to touch my cup.
You're my sugar.
It's sweeter when you stir it up.

When I'm taking sips from your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips.





Goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle rose

//////////////////////////////////////////
The Japanese commentary in this video is an image of the booklet that comes with the Japanese version of "Progressions: 100 Years Of Jazz Guitar(4-CD box set )".
It's wonderful that this "100 Years Of Jazz Guitar" has commentaries attached to all 75 tracks, and its Japanese translation are valuable materials, but unfortunately this Japanese version is completely limited. Due to production, the part released in 2006 was probably sold out and is currently difficult to obtain.
It's regrettable that this Japanese translation booklet, which is valuable for Japanese jazz guitar fans, is not well known. So I will publish a part of it on YouTube.
If this Japanese version is reprinted in the future, this publication will no longer be necessary. I hope that music fans will find it useful as an assistance until then.
