Mason Jennings Lyrics: My Only Company

My Only Company

Oh my little honey honey
Sweet little drop of wine
The nights are dark
All the light is gone
I think that we've both gone blind

But it ain't like the bad news story
That life so often brings
We've got luck and love and the sky above
And plenty of those good little things

And it's all right my love
It's days like this that I've been dreaming of
And it's a sweet sound to me
To be rollin' down to New Orleans
With you as my only company

It ain't worth much honey
It's just a sweet little melody
But the songs that I sing and the love that I bring
Are for you as is all of me

And I will treat you well
Better than any other can
I'll be your sweet springtime, your lullaby
I'll be your sweet-talkin' lover man

And it's alright my love
It's days like this that I've been dreaming of
And it's a sweet sound to me
To be rollin' down to New Orleans
With you as my only company

It ain't worth much honey
It's just a sweet little melody
But the songs that I sing and the love that I bring
Are for you as is all of me

And I will treat you well
Better than any other can
I'll be your sweet springtime, your lullaby
I'll be your sweet-talkin' lover man

And it's alright my love
It's days like this that I've been dreaming of
And it's a sweet, sweet sound to me
To be rollin' down to New Orleans
With you as my only company
