You can take all the tea in China
Put it in a big brown bag for me
Sail right around the seven oceans
Drop it straight into the deep blue sea
She´s as sweet as tupelo honey
She´s an angel of the first degree
She´s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey from the bee

You can´t stop us on the road to freedom
You can´t keep us ´cause our eyes can see
Men with insight, men in granite
Knights in armor bent on chivalry
She´s as sweet as tupelo honey
She´s an angel of the first degree
She´s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey from the bee

You can´t stop us on the road to freedom
You can´t stop us ´cause our eyes can see
Men with insight, men in granite
Knights in armor intent on chivalry
She´s as sweet as tupelo honey
She´s an angel of the first degree
She´s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey from the bee

You know she´s alright
You know she´s alright with me
She´s alright, she´s alright (she´s an angel)

You can take all the tea in China
Put it in a big brown bag for me
Sail it right around the seven oceans
Drop it smack dab in the middle of the deep blue sea
Because she´s as sweet as tupelo honey
She´s an angel of the first degree
She´s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey from the bee

She´s as sweet as tupelo honey
She´s an angel of the first degree
She´s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like the honey, baby, from the bee
She´s my baby, you know she´s alright.....

I heard a tale of old Manhattan
I´ve never been there but I want to go
Standing waiting on my number
