Honey Don't Lyrics

Honey Don't Song Chart

You've probably heard of a "Honeydew" list, where a wife creates a list of tasks for her husband to take care of around the house: Honey Do this, Honey Do that. Perkins flips the saying into "Honey Don't," as he asks his girl to be faithful.

Perkins originally released this as the B-side of his hit "Blue Suede Shoes." It was listed as "Honey, Don't!"

The Beatles recorded this in 1964 after Perkins visited them on the last day of recording for their fourth album, Beatles For Sale. The Beatles were big fans of Perkins, and didn't change much about the song at all, which was rare for a Beatles cover.

This is the only officially released Beatles song that was covered by each member individually: Lennon recorded it for the soundtrack of his homemade film Clock; McCartney recorded it with Carl Perkins during sessions for Paul's Tug Of War album; Ringo performed it with Perkins for the 1986 TV special Blue Suede Shoes: A Rockabilly Session With Carl Perkins And Friends, and Harrison played it in 1987 when he took the stage at a Taj Mahal concert.
