Blackberry Smoke - The Whippoorwill lyrics

rate me

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 theon road

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

You sold my years together like a patchwork quilt

you broken veils blooms, and I'll never will

the lessons I remember and some that I forgot

are precious and pure now, like a 100 circle drive

Chorus:

Well I dream that I heard that whippoorwill sing

yes 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

Chorus:

Well I dream that I heard that whippoorwill sing

yes she sang my song and called me by name

well I dreamed my head in shame, oh yeah

yes she sang my song and called me by name

Starting all over again

yes I'm starting all over again
