Lyrics of The Whippoorwill by Blackberry Smoke
verse
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
chorus
Well I dream that I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah she sang my song and called me by name
Well I hung my head in shame,Oh yeah
verse
You sewed my years together like a patchwork quilt
Your bougainvillea's bloomed it'll never wilt.
Lessons I remember and some that I forgot
Are precious and pure like one honeysuckle drop.
chorus
Well I dream that I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah she sang my song and called me by name
Well I hung my head in shame,Oh yeah
verse
I'm gonna sing that 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
chorus
Well I dream that I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah she sang my song and called me by name
Well I dream that I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah she sang my song and called me by name
chorus
Well I dream that I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah she sang my song and called me by name
Well I dream that I heard that whippoorwill sing
Yeah she sang my song and called me by name
outro
Starting all over again
Yes I'm starting all over again
Writer(s): Charlie Starr, Charles Gray
