Baltimore Oriole
Took a look at the mercury
Forty below
No life for a lady
To be draggin′ her feathers
Around in the snow
Leavin' me blue
Off she flew
To the Tangipahoa
Where a two-timin′ jaybird
Met the divine Miss O
I like to ruffle his plumage
Baltimore Oriole
Mess around with the big guy
Till he singed her wings
Forgivin' is easy
As a woman layin'
Now and then could happen to miss thing
Send her back home
Home ain′t home
Without her warblin′
How she could sing
Make a lonely man happy
Baltimore Oriole
Send her back home
Home ain't home
Without her warblin′
How she could sing
Make a lonely man happy
Baltimore Oriole
Come down off that bough
Fly back home to your daddy now
Baltimore Oriole
