歌词
[Intro] [Verse] Sun is high over Giles County Checking on my golden bounty Found a ring in the fescue again Must be work for Judge McGinn Sheriff thinks it’s little green men I just think he’s lost his chin Looking for a silver hatch In my back-forty clover patch [Chorus] They’re rigging up the honey show Making circles in a row Flattening the summer hay In a most peculiar way Trying to make the yields look small So their jars can top ‘em all But my sourwood’s pure and sweet Even when they try to cheat [Verse] I crept out by the old creek bed With a flashlight and a heavy tread Caught the judges with a garden rake Making patterns for the neighbors' sake They’re scared of what my hives can do When the tulip poplars’ blooming through It’s a long way to go for a ribbon prize Telling all those cosmic lies [Chorus] They’re rigging up the honey show Making circles in a row Flattening the summer hay In a most peculiar way Trying to make the yields look small So their jars can top ‘em all But my sourwood’s pure and sweet Even when they try to cheat [Solo] [Verse] Now the paper says we’re being watched But the plan was poorly botched My bees don't care about the grass They just watch the seasons pass I’ll take my jar to the wooden stand Best damn flavor in the land Let the judges keep their tricks I got honey they can't fix [Chorus] They’re rigging up the honey show Making circles in a row Flattening the summer hay In a most peculiar way Trying to make the yields look small So their jars can top ‘em all But my sourwood’s pure and sweet Even when they try to cheat [Outro]
