Lyrics

[Chorus] Sparrow in the treetop Though he loves his mate Sparrow in the treetop Scared of going home because it's too darn late [Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Just singin' [Chorus] Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop (In the tavern, all night) Though he loves his mate (Sitting in the tavern) Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop (In the tavern, singing songs) Scared of going home because it's too darn late [Verse 2] 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 Now that's the honest truth, dear And I swear by my life [Pre-Chorus] Kept singin' [Chorus] Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop (In the tavern, all night) Though he loves his mate (Sitting in the tavern) Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop (In the tavern, singing songs) Scared of going home because it's too darn late [Verse 4] 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 spent my time, dear Only thinkin' of you [Pre-Chorus] Just singin' [Chorus] Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop (In the tavern, all night) Though he loves his mate (Sitting in the tavern) Sparrow in the treetop, sparrow in the treetop (In the tavern, singing) Scared of going home because it's too darn late
