No Time for Honey Lyrics

Downtown they got a big temple
It sits on the highest land
Raised and built in the name of the Lord
Dedicated to the happiness of man
A satellite station to sharpen their aim
Send out their pleas for money
Time is needed to spread their fame
But they got no time for Honey

A girl named Honey
Long and black Sharp and sleek Soft and hard
She makes her livin' walkin' the streets
Right in the shadow of the churchyard
She hears the people singin'
They braggin' on Sunday morning
Plenty time to raise money plenty time to build
Got not time for Honey

Honey's older now she's hurtin and sick
It's hard to make a living for the man
Her body's used up her youth has been spent
Scarred up by a red hot brand

Inside the temple people are praying
Jesus isn't there
He's walkin' the street out on the line
And He's whisperin' in Honey's ear

He says, "I'm the Man that loves you,
And I won't break your heart for money.
Got no time for a building
Got no time for fakes
I got plenty of time for Honey."
