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
