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 Id like to ruffle his plumage
That Baltimore Oriole Messed around with that big guy Til he singed her wings Forgivin is easy, its a woman like, now and then Could happen to thing
Send her back home Home aint 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
Send her back home Home aint 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
