Baltimore Oriole
|
Took one 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 - down in Louisiana
|
Where a two - timin' Jaybird
|
Met the divine Miss O
|
|
I'd like to ruffle his plumage
|
That Baltimore Oriole
|
Messed around with that big guy
|
Till he singed her wings
|
Forgivin' is easy - it's a woman like, now and then
|
Could happen to thing
|
Send her back home
|
Home ain't home without her warbling
|
How she can sing
|
Make a lonely man happy, Baltimore Oriole
|
Come down from that bough
|
Fly to your daddy now.
