Whippoorwill |
If you ever leave, and I imagine you will |
It’ll just be me and the whippoorwill — |
Just we two, and the evening star |
If you pack your suitcase and go get in your car |
And drive down the road |
In the mud or the dust, over to the river |
KC or bust. |
If you ever go, I’ll be here still |
Getting annoyed at the whippoorwill |
Getting annoyed, unable to sleep, the dust too dusty |
Or the mud too deep. |
I’ll follow your dust |
Or I’ll follow your tracks over to the hard road |
And I’ll bring you back |
If you won’t come back, I’ll stay on your trail |
Up through heaven, or down through hell |
I’ll miss this old place, I’ll miss these old hills |
But I sure won’t miss that whippoorwill |
You are dearer to me than the birds or the stars |
Sweeter to me than the hills and the flowers |
Long as I have you I can take anything |
So let love be home, and let the whippoorwill sing |
