Tammy

I hear the cottonwoods whisperin' above

"Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love"

The ole hooty-owl hooty-hoos to the dove

"Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love"

Does my lover feel what I feel

When he comes near?

My heart beats so joyfully

You'd think that he could hear

Wish I knew if he knew what I'm dreamin' of

"Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love"

Whippoorwill, whippoorwill, you and I know

Tammy, Tammy can't let him go

The breeze from the bayou keeps murmuring low

"Tammy, Tammy, you love him so"

When the night is warm, soft and warm

I long for his charms

I'd sing like a violin

If I were in his arms

Wish I knew if he knew what I'm dreaming of

"Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love"
