Guy Mitchell - Sparrow in the Treetop lyrics

In the tavern, all night sittin' in the tavern In the tavern singin' songs [Chorus:] 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' [Chorus] 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' [Chorus] In the tavern, all night sittin' in the tavern, In the tavern singin' songs 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' [Chorus] Just singin' [Chorus] In the tavern, all night sittin' in the tavern, In the tavern singin' songs
