Lyrics
T.N.T., gasoline,
Even nitroglycerine,
Ain’t got the kick of the kisses I get now,
From my honey
Tried to call him a name,
But they all seem much too tame,
Why he’s so blame, cute like,
No name suits like.

Chorus:
Sweet man,
My, sweeter than sweet man,
The steppinest feet man,
And that isn’t all,
Dancin’
I claim is just one of his charms,
When I’m in his arms,
I, yell like-well I’ve more to tell about, Sweet man,
That “pleasure to meet” man,
My candy receipt man,
He taught me to smile,
One kiss from his red lips,
Sends my conscience off on trips,
My sweet man is drivin’ me wild.

Sugar buns, honeycombs,
Apple pie and ice cream cones,
Don’t half compare with the sweetness of the smile, of my honey.
What a smile
Oh! those lips,
Just as sweet as honey drips,
I’m so proud, I’m shoutin’ lord about him.

Chorus:
Sweet man,
My heaven complete man,
My couldn’t be beat man,
You haven’t heard half,
He’s true as I could expect him to be,
He sees only me,
It’s true I know
Because he told me so,
Sweet man,
So tidy and neat man,
My “hotter than heat” man,
With oceans of style,
What honey’s to the bee
That’s what my man is to me,
My Sweet man is drivin’ me wild.
