Carmen McRae - Baltimore Oriole (Remastered) Lyrics

Lyrics Baltimore Oriole (Remastered) - Carmen McRae



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 her mate, she flew-strate
To the Tangipaho
Where a two - timin' blackbird
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
Make a lonely man happy, Baltimore Oriole
Come down from that bough
Fly back to me now.
Send her back home
Home ain′t home without her warbling
Make a lonely man happy, Baltimore Oriole
Come down from that bough
Fly back to me now.
Baltimore Oriole
