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 dreaming 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
