- "I wrote The Bees with my friend Daniel Tashian years ago, before I even had a publishing deal. I had just lost my grandmother, sister-in-law, and neighbor all in the same year... around that same time I fell in love with The Secret Life of Bees, a book that reminded me of my grandmother. One day while I was mowing the lawn, I started humming the chorus… “I can hear the bees buzzin' through the walls” … it eventually got to Lee Ann Womack, and the rest is history! I hope y’all like it 🙏" -- Natalie

Lyrics:
I've been looking for a sweeter side
Looking for a big bloom on a short vine
Looking for a better way of life
Somewhere that I can call home
Spent my time at a peach stand
Sun beatin' like a stinging red tan
Like the back of my daddy's hand
The only thing I've ever known
I can hear the bees buzzin' through the walls
Making their honey and singing their song
They say I work for the queen all day
Yeah, I work for the queen all day
Sometimes it's a bitter taste
For a motherless child so out of place
I never understood why she ran away
Maybe I'll never know
But there's a light shinin' through the trees
And a restless hum that's calling me
I could almost be carried by the breeze
And let it take me where it goes
I can hear the bees buzzin' through the walls
Making their honey and singing their song
They say I work for the queen all day
Yeah, I work for the queen all day
Now I'm standing on the front porch
Kettle whistling through the screen door
Little footsteps on the kitchen floor
Pretty soon we're gonna eat
Some things come right away
Some seem to take forever and a day
All I know is that it worked out either way
I think I found a family
I can hear the bees buzzin' through the walls
Making their honey and singing their song
They say I work for the queen all day
Yeah, I work for the queen all day
I can hear the bees buzzin' through the walls
Making their honey and singing their song
They say I work for the queen all day
Yeah, I work for the queen all day

The real deal behind the curtain. The appreciation is less in numbers Natalie, but more in heart.
You're such a blessing to the world, one of the most underrated musicians & songwriters!!!
Love your songs!!!
This is dope! great sound, writing and great singing.
Love your voice so much, so many amazing songs and artists that you have written for but your vocal version is my favorite.
Exactly, one of the most unique singer/ songwriters. What a great talent, I live to hear music like this.
Know all about bees buzzin' through the walls...don't ask! Beautiful song.
I heard Kelly Hogan and Robbie Fulks cover this song at a show and thought "I have to find that bees song!" So glad because it led me to you and all your amazing music. ♥️
Awesome
