Honey Bug 1910

I am not to blame
if my heart's aflame,
for my beau has given me
the lovin'est name,
He used to call me "Pet"
and "Little Hon."
"Cutie" "Dear" and "Pretty One"
But last night at a ball,
in Germania Hall,
Sweetie said
"I've got for you
the best name of all."
Then with a kiss
full of bliss
right into my ear
he whispered this:

Honey Bug
Oh, I love the name of Honey Bug,
I want to say it very gently
as we kiss and hug,
Then I'll be as happy as a bug in a rug,
Oh, Honey Bug,
You're a beauty
tho' your nose is pug,
My heart is warmer than an oven
and I feel so lovin'
for I am the Honey
of my little Honey Bug.

Honey Bug
Oh, I love the name of Honey Bug,
I want to say it very gently
as we kiss and hug,
Then I'll be as happy as a bug in a rug,
Oh, Honey Bug,
You're a beauty
tho' your nose is pug,
My heart is warmer than an oven
and I feel so lovin'
for I am the Honey
of my little Honey Bug.

When he called me "Pearl"
and his "GirlieGirl"
I was tickled so my hair
came right out of curl,
Then Sweetie said
I was his "Turtle Dove"
"Baby Face" and "Only Love"
and once before a crowd,
I became so proud
when he called me "Toodles"
I just hollered out loud,
"Oh Sweetie dear
please draw near
say that gentle name
so all can hear."

Honey Bug
Oh, I love the name of Honey Bug,
I want to say it very gently
as we kiss and hug,
Then I'll be as happy as a bug in a rug,
Oh, Honey Bug,
You're a beauty
tho' your nose is pug,
My heart is warmer than an oven
and I feel so lovin'
for I am the Honey
of my little Honey Bug.

Honey Bug
Oh, I love the name of Honey Bug,
I want to say it very gently
as we kiss and hug,
Then I'll be as happy as a bug in a rug,
Oh, Honey Bug,
You're a beauty
tho' your nose is pug,
My heart is warmer than an oven
and I feel so lovin'
for I am the Honey
of my little Honey Bug.
