The Whippoorwill Lyrics
Going through life the righteous way
The only way, so the preacher would say
You put me on the Jericho road
Barefoot and smiling, standing there by the piano
Well, I dreamed I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah, she sang my song and called me by name
And I hung my head in shame
Oh yeah
You sewed my years together like a patchwork quilt
Your bougainvillea's bloom, it'll never wilt
The lessons I remember and some that I forgot
Are precious and pure, now, like the one honeysuckle drop
Well, I dreamed I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah, she sang my song and called me by name
Well, I hung my head in shame, oh yeah...
I'm gonna sing my song with the whippoorwill
In the sweet, high harmony
Though I know just what went with her
She's always here with me
Always here with me
Well, I dreamed I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah, she sang my song and called me by name
Well, I dreamed I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah, she sang my song and called me by name, oh
Starting all over again
Yes, I'm starting all over again
The only way, so the preacher would say
You put me on the Jericho road
Barefoot and smiling, standing there by the piano
Yeah, she sang my song and called me by name
And I hung my head in shame
Oh yeah
Your bougainvillea's bloom, it'll never wilt
The lessons I remember and some that I forgot
Are precious and pure, now, like the one honeysuckle drop
Yeah, she sang my song and called me by name
Well, I hung my head in shame, oh yeah...
In the sweet, high harmony
Though I know just what went with her
She's always here with me
Always here with me
Yeah, she sang my song and called me by name
Well, I dreamed I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah, she sang my song and called me by name, oh
Starting all over again
Yes, I'm starting all over again
