"The Whippoorwill" lyrics - BLACKBERRY SMOKE

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 sewed my years together like a patchwork quilt
Your bougainvilleas bloom and I'll never will
The lessons I remember and some that I forgot
Are precious and pure now, like a one hundred circle drive

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

I'm gonna sing my song with the Whippoorwill
In a sweetheart 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

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