Píseň: Tammy
I hear the cottonwoods whisp'rin' above Tammy! Tammy! Tammy's in love The ole hootie owl hootie-hoo's to the dove Tammy! Tammy! Tammy's my love Does my darling feel what I feel When she comes near? My heart beats so joyfully You'd think that she could hear Wish I knew if she knew what I'm dreaming of Tammy! Tammy! Tammy's my love! Whippoorwill, whippoorwill, you and I know Tammy! Tammy! Can't let her go The breeze from the bayou keeps murmuring low Tammy! Tammy! You love her so When the night is warm, soft and warm I long for her charms! I'd sing like a violin If she were in my arms Wish I knew if she knew what I'm dreaming of Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's my love!
