Lyrics
Baltimore oriole took a look at that mercury, forty below
No life for a lady to be draggin' her feathers around in the snow
Leavin' her mate, she flew straight to the tanger pole
Where a two-timin' blackbird met the divine miss-ole
I like to raffle his plumage
Baltimore oriole messed around with
That big mouth 'til he singed her wing
Forgivin' is easy, it's a woman-like now and then could happen thing
Send him back home 'cause home ain't home without his warblin'
Make a lonely girl happy, Baltimore oriole
Come down from that bough, fly back to me now
Baltimore oriole messed around with
That big mouth 'til he singed her wing
Forgivin' is easy, it's a woman-like now and then could happen thing
Send him back home 'cause home ain't home without his warblin'
Make a lonely girl happy, Baltimore oriole
Come down from that bough, fly back to me now
Baltimore oriole
