Sparrow In The Tree Top

(álbum: 20 Golden Pieces Of Guy Mitchell - 1984)

Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop
Though he loves his mate
Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop
Scared of going 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 singing a song
Like a lonely sparrow, started singing along

Just singing
Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop
Though he loves his mate
Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop
Scared of going 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
That's the honest truth, dear, and I swear by my life

Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop
Hough he loves his mate
Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop
Scared of going 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 telling you true
I was in the tavern only thinking of you

Just singing
Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop
Though he loves his mate
Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop
Scared of going home because it's too darn late

Just singing
Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop
Though he loves his mate
Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop
Scared of going home because it's too darn late!
