Tony Joe White - Robbin' My Honeycomb

(Intro: Dm)

Dm                           Am7
One more Greyhound running tonight
Gm       A7          Dm
Biloxi, Mississippi bound
                                 Am7
But I ain't ridin', let it go on by
   Gm              A7             Dm
I think I'll just hang around downtown

            Gm          A7           Dm
Went to my baby's house, didn't telephone
                    Gm      A7            Dm 
Strange car in the driveway, she was not alone
                    Gm     A7                  Dm 
Now I'm out on the street, hurting down in my bones
    Am7   Gm     A7              Dm 
Somebody's been robbin' my honeycomb

(Same chord progression in the guitar solos)

I can't look back, no memories
If that's the way she wants it, that's how's it gonna be
I never was one to keep hanging on
If the woman don't want you just leave her alone

But I think about it, and it tears me down
I find a little bar with a 7 and a Crown
I'm a dangerous man, drinkin' alone
And I feel like robbin' somebody's honeycomb

Daylight finds me out on the road
Hard rain falling but I don't feel the cold
I got a fire inside and it's burnin' deep
I got to let that woman and her new lover be

But he better not play you for a fool
I'd hurt somebody that would do that to you
I still got my feelings, they're burnin' strong
Somebody's been robbin my honeycomb
And I feel like robbin' somebody's honeycomb
