Tammy Lyrics

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 dreamin' 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,
Safe 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
