paroles de chanson Baltimore Oriole - Hoagy Carmichael

Baltimore Oriole
Took a look at the mercury, forty below.

No life for a lady
To be draggin' her feathers around in the snow.

Leavin' me blue, off she flew
To the Tangipaho, down in Louisiana.

Where the two timin' Jaybird
Met the divine Miss O.

I'd like to ruffle his plumage
That Baltimore Oriole.

Messed around with that big guy
'Til 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
Fly to your daddy now.

(Bridge)

Send her back home, and alone
Home ain't home without her warbling.

How she can sing
Make a lonely man happy, Baltimore Oriole.

Come down from the bough
Fly to your daddy now.
