The Missouri State insect is the honey bee
It makes a golden candy for you and me.
Dressed so pretty in a black and yellow gown.
Looks mighty fine as it flies into town.

It dances and prances and does a little jig.

Telling all the others about the nectar on the flower
Then they all fly away to just the right spot.
Where they gather the sweet
Nectar that will fill our honey pot.
