Sparrow in the Tree Top (Rerecorded)

Sparrow in the Tree Top - Guy Mitchell

In the tavern all night sittin' in the tavern

In the tavern singin' songs

Sparrow in the treetop sparrow in the treetop

Though he loves his mate

Sparrow in the treetop sparrow in the treetop

Scared of goin' home because it's too darn late

Don't look at me sweetheart with scorn in your eyes

Been out all night gonna tell you no lies

Stopped in one place heard them singin' a song

Heard them singin' a song

Like a lonely sparrow started singin' along

Just singin'

Sparrow in the treetop sparrow in the treetop

Though he loves his mate

Sparrow in the treetop sparrow in the treetop

Scared of goin' home because it's too darn late

In walked a blonde and dear she asked me to dance

I told that blonde that there wasn't a chance

I love my kids and my beautiful wife

And my beautiful wife

That's the honest truth dear and I swear by my life

Just singin'

Sparrow in the treetop sparrow in the treetop

Though he loves his mate

Sparrow in the treetop sparrow in the treetop

Scared of goin' home because it's too darn late

There's things I am sweetheart and things that I ain't

'Cause I'm a man and a man is no saint

Won't you forgive 'cause I'm tellin' you true

'Cause I'm tellin' you true

I was in the tavern only thinkin' of you

Just singin'

Sparrow in the treetop sparrow in the treetop

Though he loves his mate

Sparrow in the treetop sparrow in the treetop

Scared of goin' home because it's too darn late

Just singin'

Sparrow in the treetop sparrow in the treetop

Though he loves his mate

Sparrow in the treetop sparrow in the treetop

Scared of goin' home because it's too darn late
