[Intro]
Holy smoke
Land sakes alive!
I never thought this could happen to me

Uh huh, yeah
Uh huh, yeah

[Verse 1]
I got stung by a sweet honey bee
Oh, what a feeling come over me
It started in my eyes
Crept up to my head
Flew to my heart
'Til I was stung dead
I'm done, uh-uh
I got stung

Uh huh, yeah
Uh huh, yeah

[Verse 2]
She had all that I wanted and more
And I've seen honey bees before
She started buzzing in my ear
Buzzing in my brain
Got stung all over
But I feel no pain
I'm done
Uh-uh, I got stung

[Bridge]
Now don't think I'm complaining
I'm mighty pleased we met
But you give one little peck
On the back of my neck
And I break out in a cold, cold sweat

[Verse 3]
Well, if I live to a hundred and two
I won't let nobody sting me but you
I'll be buzzing around your hive
Every day at five
And I'm never going to leave once I arrive
Because I'm done
Uh-uh, I got stung

Uh huh, yeah
Uh huh, yeah

[Bridge]
Now don't think I'm complaining
I'm mighty pleased we met
But you give me one little peck
On the back of my neck
And I break out in a cold, cold sweat

[Verse 3]
Well, if I live to a hundred and two
I won't let nobody sting me but you
I'll be buzzing around your hive
Every day at five
And I'm never going to leave once I arrive
Because I'm done
Uh-uh, I got stung

Uh huh, yeah
Uh huh, yeah
Uh huh, yeah

Elvis Presley

Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American performer that spanned all media—music, film, and historic live concerts—with a vehement passion that earned him the moniker, “The King of Rock and Roll.”

Elvis Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi to Gladys and Vernon Presley. At the age of 13, he moved with his family to Memphis, Tennessee. Elvis began to explore the blues scene prevalent in Memphis and the culture it encompassed.

In August 1953, he walked into Sun Records to record a song for his mother’s birthday. Manager of Sun Records Sam Phillips took note of his unique voice and persona, and invited Elvis back to the studio in July 1954, where he ultimately recorded his first true single, “That’s All Right,” with “Blue Moon of Kentucky” as the B-side.
