BALTIMORE ORIOLE

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 Tangipahoa Where a two-timin' Jaybird Met the divine Miss O I'd like to ruffle his plumage Baltimore Oriole Messin' around with that big guy 'Till he singes 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 her lonely man happy, Baltimore Oriole Send her back home Home ain't home without her warbling How she could sing Make her lonely man happy, Baltimore Oriole Come down off that bough Fly back home to your daddy now Baltimore Oriole
