Whippoorwill

Lyrics

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 close 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
 Out 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 sweeter to me than the birds or the stars
 Dear to me than the hills and the flowers
 Long as I have you I can take anything
 So let love be our home, and let the whippoorwill sing
