INTRO:

Holy Smokes! A-land sakes alive!

I never thought this could happen to me.

Mm, Mmm, yeah! mm, oh, yeah!

#1.
      D
I got stung by a sweet honey bee, oh, what a feeling 

come over me.
   G
It started in my eyes, crept up to my head,
D
Flew to my heart, till I was stung dead.
    A        G          D
I'm done, uh-huh..I got stung!
    D
Mm, yeah! mm, yeah!

#2.
        D
She had all that I wanted and more, and I've seen 

honey bees before.
        G
Started buzzin' in my ear, buzzin in my brain,
    D
Got stung all over but I feel no pain.
          A        G          D
Well, I'm done, uh-huh..I got stung!

CHORUS:
     G               D                A
Now, don't think I'm complainin'..I'm mighty
           D
pleased we met.
                     G
Cause you gimme just one little peck on the
D
back of my neck,
    E                A7
And I break out in a cold, cold sweat.

#3.
     D
If I live to a hundred and two, I won't let 

nobody sting me but you.
        G
I'll be buzzin' round your hive, every day at five,
        D
and I'm never gonna leave, once I arrive.
         A        G          D
Cause Im done..Uh-huh, I got stung!

CHORUS:
REPEAT#3.

D
I got stung! (x3)
