The Whippoorwill
Blackberry Smoke
Letra

Going through life, the righteous way
The only way so the preacher would say
You put me on the Jericho road
Barefoot and smiling, standing there by the piano

Well, I dreamed I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah she sang my song and called me by name
Well, I hung my head in shame, oh, yeah

You sold my years together like a pachtwork quilt
Your bougainvillea's bloom it'll never wilt
The lessons I remember and some that I forgot
Are precious and pure now, like the one honeysuckle drop

Well, I dreamed I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah she sang my song and called me by name
Well, I hung my head in shame, oh, yeah
Lord above

I'm gonna sing my song with the whippoorwill
In a sweet high harmony
Though I know just what went with her
She's always here with me
Always here with me

Well, I dreamed I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah she sang my song and called me by name
Well, I dreamed I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah she sang my song and called me by name, oh

Starting all over again
Yes I'm starting all over again
