Tammy

I hear the cottonwoods whisperin' above

"Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love"

The old 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 murmurin' 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 dreamin' of

Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love
