Add a little sugar, honeysuckle
and a great big expression of happiness
boy, you couldn't mi----ss
with a dozen roses
such would astound you
the joy of children laughing around you
these are the makings of you
Gm7
it is true, the makings of you------
the righteous way to go
little one would know
or believe if I told them so Dm
Gm7
you're second to no-----ne
the love of all mankind
should reflect some sign of these words
I've tried to recite
they're close but not qui---te
almost impossible to do
reciting the makings of you
