lyrics

I've been called a beecharmer, I've been called a honey fool.
I aim to be who I might have been,
if I'd known before there are no real rules

Oh I love Honeybees, The clover and the queen,
Oh honeybee oh honey bee, I reach right in
But you don't sting me

The very first time I saw that wild hive,
the one I loved had his hand on my knee
I was blushing like a berry when that honey bee flew by
and disappeared into the hollow of a tree

Now we all hear what we want to hear
I heard that hive like it was calling me home
And before I could say if it was right or wrong, that boy was off running and I held the honeycomb

What have you done to me, small soft honeybee?
Your honey is so sweet, but here I am so lonely
So lonely.

Jes Raymond & The Blackberry Bushes Seattle, Washington

The Appalachian Mountains are the meeting place of the fiddle and the banjo, and musical culture permeates the entire length of the Mississippi River. The Blackberry Bushes are rooted in the rainy bottom of the Puget Sound, but their work is infused with the essence of the homes they wandered West from.
They have a playful and resonant sound with both twang and sophistication.
