"Corinna" lyrics - DELBERT MCCLINTON

Got a bird wanta whistle
Baby's got a bird, y'all
Honey's got a bird to sing
Yeah, baby's got a bird, y'all
Honey's got a bird to sing
Without Corinna,
It sure don't mean, y'all
It sure don't mean a natural thing

I learned how to love you,
Baby, 'fore I called ya,
Honey, 'fore I called your name
Yeah, baby, 'fore I called ya
Honey, 'fore I called your name
Can't buy your love with money
Oh, baby, you're my woman
Let me be your warm heart flame

Have mercy, have mercy,
Baby, on my hard luck
Honey, on my bad luck soul
Yeah, baby, on my hard luck
Honey, on my bad luck soul
I got a rainbow round my shoulders
Shines like silver,
Baby, look like Klondike gold
Yeah, looks just like gold, baby

I learned how to love you,
Baby, 'fore I called ya,
Honey, 'fore I called your name
Oh, baby, 'fore I called ya
Honey, 'fore I called your name
Without Corinna,
Sure don't mean, honey
Sure don't mean a natural thing

Corinna
Oh my little Corinna
Corinna
Oh my little Corinna
