Lyrics Tupelo Honey/Angel - Cassandra Wilson

Tupelo Honey/Angel

You can take all the tea in China
Put it in a big brown bag for me
Sail right around all the seven oceans
Drop it straight into the deep blue sea
He’s as sweet as tupelo honey
He’s an angel of the first degree
He’s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like the 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 bent on chivalry
He’s as sweet as tupelo honey
He’s an angel of the first degree
He’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
He’s as sweet as tupelo
He’s an angel of the first degree
He’s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey from the bee
He’s an angel who came down from heaven, yes
He’s an angel of the first degree
He’s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey from the bee
Just like honey from the bee
Just like honey from the bee
