| 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 |
