I can hear the cottonwoods whispering above

Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love

The old hootie owl hootie hoo's 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 whispering 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
