(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 |
|
(Bridge) |
|
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 x2) |
|
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 |
