Lyrics

[00:20.314] Add a little sugar, honeysuckle and
[00:28.948] A great, big expression of happiness
[00:33.914] Boy, you couldn’t miss with a dozen roses
[00:43.889] Such would astound you
[00:47.847] The joy of children laughing around you
[00:52.617] These are the makings of you
[00:58.074] It is true, the makings of you
[01:05.543]
[01:08.499] The righteous way to go
[01:14.112] Little one would know
[01:16.584] Or believe if I told them so
[01:22.115] You're second to none
[01:26.939] The love of all mankind
[01:32.032] Should reflect some sign
[01:34.840] Of these words I've tried to recite
[01:40.189] They are close, but not quite
[01:45.599] Almost impossible to do
[01:48.640] Reciting the makings of you
[01:53.733]
[02:05.365] The righteous way to go
[02:10.582] Little one would know
[02:13.389] Or believe if I told them so
[02:19.162] You're second to none
[02:23.814]
[02:24.068] The love of all mankind
[02:29.256] Should reflect some sign
[02:32.541] Of these words I've tried to recite
[02:37.533] They are close, but not quite
[02:42.996] Almost impossible to do
[02:46.286] Reciting the makings of you
[02:53.102]
