WHEN IT`S TIME FOR THE WHIPPOORWILL TO SING
Recorded by Ramona and Grandpa Jones

Oh, the [G] stars and the [C] Silvery Moon is [G] shinin`
All around as the sweet-[G7] ness of the [D] Spring
But I`m [G] sad and in [C] loneliness I`m [G] pinin`
For the [G7] one I know I`ll [D] never see a-[G] gain.

CHORUS
How I [C] long for the day when I shall [G] meet her
If it be where the An-[G7] gels sweetly [D] sing
She is [G] mine and the [C] thought of her grows [G] sweeter
When it`s [G7] time for the [D] Whippoorwill to [G] sing.

Then I left with the thought I`d be returning
Soon to her with the wealth of joy I`d bring
I returned but too late and now I`m pinin`
She has gone and in loneliness I`ll sing.

CHORUS

I remember the night she made the promise
And those words said to me great joy did bring
I`ll be true and you know you`ll find me waiting
When it`s time for the Whippoorwill to sing.

CHORUS
