It's about a bumblebee who flies even though it doesn't know it's not supposed to be able to fly. I only remember that it was uplifting and it's meaning had to do with never giving up in life, or something like that.

YOU better not fool with a Bumblebee! --
Ef you don't think they can sting - - you'll see!
They're lazy to look at, an' kindo' go
Buzzin' an' bumin' aroun' so slow,
An' ac' so slouchy an' all fagged out,
Danglin' their legs as they drone about
The hollyhawks 'at they can't climb in
'Ithout ist a-tumblin-un out agin!
Wunst I watched one climb clean 'way
In a jim'son-blossom, I did, one day, --
An' I ist grabbed it - an' nen let go --
An' "O oh-ooh! Honey! I tole ye so!"
Says The Raggedy Man; an' he ist run
An' pullt out the stinger, an' don't laugh none,
An' says: "They has ben folks, I guess,
'At thought I wuz predjudust, more er less, --
Yit I still muntain 'at a Bumblebee
Wears out his welcome too quick fer me!"
