I hear the cottonwoods whispering above, Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love The ole whootie owl whootie-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 Whipporwill, whipporwill 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 feel 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, Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love
