Sparrow In The Treetop - Rex Allen
Sparrow in the treetop
Though he loves his mate
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
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
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
I spend my 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 late
