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 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 murmuring 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
