bill monroe - the first whippoorwill lyrics
springtime is near, my darling
you say, that you are going away
my heart will be with you my darling
and i’m counting now the days
i know that soon i’ll have to travel
i know i’m over the hill
i feel so all alone, my darling said, she’d be gone
when i heard that first whippoorwill
the flowers are blooming, little darling
with the budding of the trees
i hear the night birds a crying
i know that they are warning me
i know that soon i’ll have to travel
i know i’m over the hill
i feel so all alone, my darling said, she’d be gone
when i heard that first whippoorwill
our love was planted, little darling
just like the farmer plants his grain
but there will never be a harvest
on the hills the whippoorwill now sing
i know that soon i’ll have to travel
i know i’m over the hill
i feel so all alone, my darling said, she’d be gone
when i heard that first whippoorwill
