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.

I'D LIKE TO RUFFLE HIS PLUMAGE,
THAT BALTIMORE ORIOLE.
MESSED AROUND WITH THAT BIG GUY
TILL HE SINGED HER WINGS.
FORGIVIN' IS EASY, IT'S A WOMAN LIKE, NOW AND THEN,
COULD HAPPEN TO THING
SEND HER BACK HOME,
HOME AIN'T HOME WITHOUT HER WARBLING,
HOW SHE CAN SING.
MAKE A LONELY MAN HAPPY, BALTIMORE ORIOLE.
COME DOWN FROM THAT BOUGH.

MM-MM-MM-MM-MM-MM-AAH -

SEND HER BACK HOME,
HOME AIN'T 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.

AH - OO -.
