Lyrics:

You've got a sweet mouth on you, baby
Lord I love your golden tongue
You've got a sweet mouth on you, baby
Lord I love your golden tongue
If I can't get it when I'm older
I'm gonna have it when I'm young

You've got a sweet mouth on you, baby
Your lips are like a butterfly
You've got a sweet mouth on you, baby
Your lips are like the wings of a butterfly
Flutter by me, baby
I'll see your pattern and then I'll die

You've got a sweet mouth on you, baby
But you would not kiss a frog
You've got a sweet mouth on you, baby
But you would not kiss a frog
Let me be your demon, honey
Let me be your long black dog

You've got a sweet mouth on you, baby
But you would not kiss a prince
You've got a sweet mouth on you, baby
But you would not kiss a prince
I embraced you in my coffin
And I haven't seen you since

You've got a sweet mouth on you, baby
I buzz around you like a bee
You've got a sweet mouth on you, baby
I swing by just like a bee
You're so dark and full of honey
When you stand in front of me
