Song Of A Whippoorwill Lyrics - Taken - Rhonda Vincent

I heard the whippoorwill a singin' 

He sang so high and lonesome 

So high and lonesome 

It brought tears to my eyes 

He was searchin' for his sweet love 

He'd fly so high above us 

So high above us 

As the stars filled the sky 

His cries would cross the mountain 

Echo through the valleys green 

He'd fly closer to the heavens 

Where his love had gone to be 

He sings a song about his sweet love 

He sings so high and lonesome 

So high and lonesome 

It brought tears to my eyes 

He keeps searchin' for his true love 

She flies so high above us 

So high above us 

In the sweet by-and-by 

INSTRUMENTAL 

His cries still cross the mountains 

Echo through the valleys green 

He flies closer to the heavens 

Where his love had gone to be 

He keeps searchin' for his true love 

She flies so high above us 

So high above us 

In the sweet by-and-by
