Baltimore oriole |
|
Took a look at that mercury, forty below |
|
No life for a lady |
|
To be draggin' her feathers around in the snow |
|
Leaving me blue, off she flew |
|
To the Tangipaho |
|
Where a two-timing jaybird |
|
Met the divine Miss O |
|
I'd like to ruffle his plumage |
|
Baltimore oriole |
|
Mess around with the big guy |
|
Till he sensed her wings |
|
Forgivin' is easy it's a woman like |
|
Now and then could happen to this thing |
|
Send her back home |
|
Home ain't home without her warbling |
|
How she could sing |
|
Make a lonely man happy |
|
Baltimore oriole |
|
Send her back home |
|
Home ain't home without her warbling |
|
How she could sing |
|
Make a lonely man happy |
|
Baltimore oriole |
|
Come down from that bough |
|
Fly back to your daddy now |
|
