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 her mate she flew-strate
To the Tangipaho
Where a two timin' blackbird
Met the divine Miss O
I'd like to ruffle his plumage
That Baltimore Oriole
Messed around with that big mouse
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
Make a lonely man happy
Baltimore Oriole
Come down from that bough
Fly back to me now
Send her back home
Home ain't home without her warbling
Make a lonely man happy
Baltimore Oriole
Come down from that bough
Fly back to me now
Baltimore Oriole
