(Verse 1)
Whippoorwill, whippoorwill
Sing a song for me
Ringing through the night from dusk till dawn
Whippoorwill, whippoorwill
Share your melody
Give me the strength to carry on

(Bridge)
And I know that I can’t carry on this way
So I’ll just let you sing when I’ve nothing to say

(Verse 2)
Whippoorwill, Whippoorwill
The sun is sinking low
And it’s about time for you to rise
Whippoorwill, Whippoorwill
I’m feeling so alone
Save me from my imminent demise

(Verse 3)
Whippoorwill, whippoorwill
Don’t you fly away
And leave me just like everyone does
Whippoorwill, whippoorwill
Stay with me today
Just one little song would be enough
