Whippoorwill's singing Soft summer breeze Makes me think of my baby I left down in New Orleans I left down in New Orleans Magnolia, you sweet thing You're driving me mad Got to get back to you, babe You're the best I ever had You're the best I ever had You whisper 'Good morning' So gently in my ear I'm coming home to you, babe I'll soon be there I'll soon be there
