Sam Cooke — Tammy

[Verse 1] I hear the cottonwoods whispering above Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's my love The old hootie owl hootie-hoo's to the dove Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's my love [Bridge] Does my darling feel what I feel When he comes near? My heart beats so joyfully You'd think that she could hear Wish I knew if she knew what I'm dreaming of Tammy, Tammy, Tammy, my love [Verse 2] Whippoorwill, whippoorwill, you and I know Tammy, Tammy, can't let her go The breeze from the bayou keeps murmuring low Tammy, Tammy, you love her so [Bridge] When the night is warm, soft and warm I long for her charms I'd sing like a violin If she was in my arms [Outro] Wish I knew if she knew what I'm dreaming of Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's my love
