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 straight
To the Tangipaho
Where two timin' Jaybird
Met the divine Miss O
I'd like to ruffle his plumage

Baltimore Oriole
Messed around with that Jaybird
'Til he singed her wings
Forgivin' is easy, it's a woman like, now and then
Could happen thing
Send her back home
Home ain't home without her warbling, I know
Make a lonely man happy, Baltimore Oriole

Baltimore Oriole
She messed around with that Jaybird
'Til he singed her wings
Forgivin' is easy, it's a woman like, now and then
Could happen thing
Send her back home
Home ain't home without her warbling, I know
Make a lonely man happy, Baltimore Oriole
Come down from the bough
Fly home to him now
Baltimore Oriole
