(Jay Livingston - Ray Evans)

I hear the cottonwoods whispering above
Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love
The ole whootie owl whootie-hoo's to the dove
Tammy. oh Tammy, Tammy's in love.

Does my darling feel what I feel when he comes near
My heart beats so joyfully you'd think that he could hear
Wish I knew if he knew what I'm dreaming of
Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love.

(Whipporwill, whipporwill you and I know)
Tammy, Tammy can't let him go
(The breeze from the bayou keeps murmuring low)
Tammy, Tammy, you love him so.

When the night is warm soft and warm I long for his charms
I'd sing like a violin if I were in his arms
Wish I knew if he knew what I'm dreaming of
Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love...
