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
